I dunno... I'd say do it. But I'm not that big of a fan of Gore, either. Gore is older and much more injury prone then the rest of the guys in the trade, while Jennings is becoming a top tier 2 to low tier 1 stud WR. So, you'd give up a blossoming WR and a over the hill (injury-wise) RB for... Chris Johnson who is a stud in the making and while he's had some injuries too, he's just a much more reliable pick, in my mind, over his counterpart Gore. Then, we get to the tough part... if you think Anthony Gonzales can step in and become a legitimate WR2 with Peyton Manning then I say pull the trigger. If you have your doubts, well Jennings is a good bet for a low-tier 1 guy. Tough trade idea... if I can get your league scoring, roster req's, and stuff I can make a more educated decision though. ;-D

I would pass. While you get younger at RB Gore still has plenty left and Jennings is a top 5 WR. From 2008 stats you downgrade by 70 points total. GOnzo could be great but you already have great in Jennings. GOnzo is 3+ years away from potentially being the WR1 in Indy and in 3 years Manning will be 36. No good.

Stay put.

I agree as well...I'm not huge on Frank Gore but I actually do think that he will have a much better season than he's had in recent years this season which will very much elevate his value and you'll probably be able to get more for him either during the season or afterwards.
