Help deciding on Trade of Mendy

[jstelte]

I have a offer of my R Mendenhall for his S Jackson and N Burleson.
We are in a keeper league, no ppr, td are all 4points everything else standard.

My team
qb rivers, stafford
rb Mendenhall, bradshaw, best, kuhn, ivory
wr fitgerald, colston, bryant, manningham
te clark, m lewis

I like mendy but with rapelisberger coming back they will throw more.
jackson is a 20= touch guy every week.
burleson has value with megtron hurt but less when wh is not hurt. but all i have at wr is fitz colston and bryant who are not lighting it up.

the only other wr he has that he would think of subbing for burleson is amendola who might become bradfords #1 in STL.
What do you guys think should i do the trade or which one burleson or amendola?
Thanks in advance for the help

I have Mendenhall and I wouldn't do this. I'm also a Steeler fan and after watching all of the games I think Ben will really help Mendy out. If you watched any of the games, the Steelers were completely one dimensional on offense, knew the run was coming, and Mendenhall still put up great numbers. Burleson and Amendola are unproven so this is a pretty much a Mendenhall for SJax deal straight up in my opinion, which I definitely wouldn't do. I don't put too much stock in rankings, but mostly everywhere you look Mendy is higher than SJax. Also, you already sat through Mendy's bye. Just my 2 cents.

Help with mine? It's a small time deal. I'm 2-3 and I don't think I can afford to wait for Steve Smith (Car) through his bye, injuries, and quarterback. Due to byes, I would have to start Louis Murphy this week. I could trade Smith for Garcon, Thomas Jones, and Davone Bess. I would rather start Garcon than Murphy I think.

Rest of Team:
QB: Brady
RB: Mendenhall, Benson, Hillis, BGJE, F. Jackson
WR: Smith (Car), Driver, Ocho, T.O., Murphy

I would keep mendy, has been a beast lately and will get plenty of red zone looks with the pitt offense improving.
