Big big trade ... but when you're 4-6 it might not hurt to shake things up. I think you did fine. With the exception of the Cotchery/Olsen part you did the same thing in each case: trade away the bigger pre-season "name" for guy that actually outperform them through 10 weeks. Rodgers vs Brady, Mendy vs PT, Colston vs Jennings. A gutsy move, but if I was a betting man I'd bet your new players as a whole score more than the guys you traded away. Though its certainly close. And with Cotchery/Olsen you trade a bench WR for a better TE. So I'd say you did well, though with so many players involved it can certainly end up going either way.

Rodgers/Colston/Mendenhall/Olsen

Eh close at QB, Rodgers is underrated. Colston is an upgrade, kinda push at RB, but I'd rather have Mendy. Olsen meh nice upgrade at TE.

I think if it ain't broke why fix it, but if you need to shake things up to change your fortune then go for it.

Its not a bad deal either way. It might not even make a difference.
