Help with 2 trades: McCoy/Colston+Forte+Green-Ellis

[phackney]

I'm looking to try and upgrade, I've had a bunch of injuries, plus Forte hasn't done crap for me lately. I'm in a PPR, PPC league. I just need your advice on some trades I'm proposing, I'm pretty sure 1 of them will bite, hopefully both. Please tell me if I'm ripping myself off.

Trade 1: My Ward + Forte for his McCoy. I have a feeling Forte is heading downhill quick. I'm betting on McCoy's injury not being too bad and Colston has practically been useless.

Trade 2: My Colston + Torrain for his Miles Austin. My WR's are pretty slim outside of Andre Johnson and I need a WR bad this week. He's stacked with WR's and Austin is actually his 3rd best as far as FF points. The only RB's he has are LT and Lynch. Hoping he bites with Torrain as current starter(I think he's going to be an injury pretty soon with his running style)

My Lineup matrix and players are below, leave a link and I'll help you, thanks.

QB: Kolb
WR: A. Johnson (Colston, Ward, Holmes)
RB: P. Thomas(Mendenhall, Forte, McFadden, Green-Ellis)
TE: Dallas Clark
Flex: Mike Bush
Flex: Hillis
Flex: Torrain

I like both trades for you, but don't understand why you are targeting RBs and WRs instead of a QB. I think you should wait a week before looking for WR help to see how Ward gels with Big Ben and how Holmes looks with the Jet offense. I have a feeling both are going to turn into decent WR2s behind AJ. And to me it seems like you're fine at RB as well. I feel your biggest need is at the QB position.
