Portis/Olsen for Gates/Gonzalez/Wells *WHIR*

[Daulton]

Hey Guys,

I just received this trade offer, and I am looking for some advice.

I would be trading my Portis and Olsen for their A. Gates, A. Gonzalez, and C. Wells.

QB - P. Manning
RB - M. Forte
RB - C. Portis
RB/WR - K. Smith
WR - T.J. Houshmandzadeh
WR - R. Wayne
TE - G. Olsen
D/ST - Bears
K - R. Gould

Bench:
WR - L. Evans
WR - H. Ward
WR - D. Mason
RB - D. Sproles
RB - F. Jones
QB - D. McNabb
D/ST - Eagles

Do I pull the trigger on this? I never know what to expect with Portis, and I don't think the Skins are going to be any better this year. Beanie has a ton of upside though, which is why I am considering it.

Thanks in advance!

no the downgrade in RB is not worth the slight upgrade at TE...and you have enough WR depth you dont need A-Gon

If Beanie was the starter on a team that ran the ball more then I could see pulling off this deal but as is I would not do it.

Thanks for the help guys!

I agree that you let this one go. Olsen has break-out written all over him. If you executed the trade, you would likely have Lee Evans filling the flex spot that would be vacated by Smith moving to the RB spot over Portis. Wells looked great last game, but injury concerns are huge with him.
