Are you getting Taylor and BAL? Or are you getting Fitz?

How many of each do you start? What's the scoring?

I would say do the trade. The Baltimore Defense is good, don't get me wrong. But Im not so sure they will be priming those numbers EVERY week. As is with most defenses, they are very week to week.

You do need help in the WR dept that is for sure. Steve Smith is a big ?, Housh is still a ?, Johnson and Coles are iffy to get a lot of yards EVERY week. And in your scoring system, your WR needs a lot of yards to score descent points. Fitzgerald will fill that void until Smith gets healthy. You can afford to lose Chester since you have a pretty solid RB core.

I say do it

O4L

Assuming you are the guy getting Fitzgerald,... based on the make-up of your roster, I'm with O4l. DO IT! WR for RB aside, Fitzgerald is a blue-chipper. Baltimore's defense is good, but who knows? There's a LONG road ahead of us. Taylor will probably be solid this year in Minnesota, but Fitz is DEFINITELY AWESOME in Arizona. You'll be okay at running back. You need help at receiver, at least in the immediacy. If your roster was comprised differently, i.e. you were good to go at receiver, I may be suggesting otherwise. But, this deal fits your team like a glove. Go and cut it! [smiley=onit.gif]
