    Need Some Advice On A Big Trade

    My DeMarco Murray and Alfred Morris for his Adrian Peterson and Antonio Brown. I may be getting the short end of the stick on this deal, but I'm 1-3, desperately need a win, DeMarco is on bye, so I'd be getting an extra player for this week.

    Here's my lineup right now. I'm kind of weak at my 2nd WR spot (Maclin), and I have a ton of depth at RB, so Alfred is replaceable. I figure if I get rid of Alf, I can play matchups at my flex spot between Benson, LeShoure and FJax.

    Standard 10 team league, non-ppr.
    QB: Peyton
    RB: DeMarco
    RB: DMC
    WR: Marshall
    WR: Maclin
    FLEX: Alfred
    TE: Gates
    K: Crosby
    DST: 49ers
    BENCH: Benson, LeShoure, Fred Jackson, Anquan Boldin, James Jones (once I get him off waivers), Celek, Schaub

    My lineup for week 5 looks weak. With DMC and DeMarco on bye, if I don't make this trade I roll out a weak lineup of Peyton, Benson, Alfred, Marshall, Maclin, James Jones, Gates, Crosby and 49ers DST. If I make the trade, I vastly upgrade my lineup for this week, and solidfy mr WR2 spot.

    So help me, should I do this trade? I'm not to high on DeMarco either, Cowboys Oline looks like crap, and AP's schedule is much more favorable than DeMarco's.

    I like the trade. AP will get stronger as the season goes and you're right about the Cowboy's OLine. DeMarco runs alot like AP, but that OL is horrible and Cowboys always struggle in the redzone/goal line. I really like Antonio Brown, especially in PPR leagues, he will get plenty of catches since the Steelers don't have a running game, plus he's already had his bye week.

    I think I would rather hold onto DeMarco over McFadden. I have McFadden and he's frustrating as hell.

    I'm debating that same thing. Both are frustrating, but DMC has the more favorable schedule. DeMarco's schedule doesn't get too easy as he plays @ Baltimore right after his Bye. DMC has the higher ceiling in my opinion, and I trust the Raiders run game a bit more. So I think I'm doing the right thing by giving up DeMarco and not DMC. The other guy said he'd be open to either DeMarco or DMC.

    I would trade my Murray for AP

    But I still don't regret trading Gronk for Murray and Hernandez

    That would be a nice deal if approved.
