Should I make the deal?

I negotiated a trade and I want to see if you think I should do it or if I should hold tight with my team.

Trade: I would give up Reggie Wanye and Ray Rice for Peyton Manning, Ryan Grant and Jason Witten.

We are a point per reception league and WR score more than most RB's. We are auction draft and I landed a lot of WR talent and have made some moves to build a really strong team. I am currently in 1st place. I am only looking to trade because my QB's are McNabb and Flacco. McNabb, I thought, was going to be a stud this year. I am very unhappy with his playing. He looks like he always has. Hitting guys in the knees and missing targets. Flacco looks good but I have not played him once. I have been playing Carson Palmer until I dealt him 2 weeks ago with Addai and Manningham to get Larry Fitz.

My team as it stands now is:
QB: McNabb and Flacco
RB: Rice, Slaton, Forte, Mendenhall, Wells and Chester Taylor.
WR: Wayne, Ochocinco, Larry Fitz, Welker and Harvin
TE: Winslow

Each week we start 1 QB, 2RB, and 1WR and then any combo of 2 more WR/TE. I usually play a 3 WR set.
QB's get 6pts for TD pass/run.

Please weigh in. Is this a smart move or should I stick with Flacco for now and Not stir the pot? Thanks guys!

I would do that trae in a heartbeat. you have plenty of depth at WR...AND YOU GET PEYTON MANNING!!! He's a fantasy wet dream this year. if you can get him with Ryan Grant...who is a second half rb...then u win baby...anything else is icing on the cake. PEYTON!! Pull the trigger homie.

I think that would be a good trade for you considering how deep u are at receiver. Its a big upgrade at qb and i dont think u will lose much with grant who tends to run better in the second half anyway

Dude. Your team is fine as it is. McNabb and Flacco may fall short of putting the numbers up like Manning but they are pretty close every week. I don't see any reason for you to make this trade. Rice is legit along with Wayne of course. I think your making a lateral move.
