R.Matthews for M.Forte?

Standard Scoring

a guy in my league is looking to trade Ryan Matthews away, he has too many SD players.

Here is my lineup:
QB (1) - J.Flacco
RB (2) - M.Forte, J.Charles, J.Stewart, C.Ivory
WR (3) - M.Austin, R.Moss, J.Gaffney, D.Bess, J.Cotchery
TE (1) - C.Cooley

I'm not to keen on my RB situation, I think that J.Charles has a chance to be huge if not for T.Jones, so I would rather keep him. I was thinking of offering M.Forte for Matthews....

Forte is obviously potent because of his passes out of the backfield more than his running. He had a good first couple weeks, but I don't know if he will do that all year. Matthews was splitting carries with Tolbert this week but he wasn't 100%.

What do you think?

I dont think I would do that. I think Forte puts up great numbers in fantasy with matthews being unporved and hit or miss IMO

please help

I wouldn't do that either. Forte obviously has good hands and depending on Cutler's situation going into the next game, the game plan may be to rely on the run and short passes. Mathews has a good match up next week, but looking forward I think Forte will be good for you. If he is looking to sell, offer Ivory & Gaffney/Bess. Gives him some options and you can find a comparable WR out there I'm sure.
