I play in a league that is mostly a TD only with 6points for all touchdowns. We get a couple extra points for length of TD and a couple extra points for reaching benchmarks (300+ yards passing, 100+ yards rushing/receiving). But yeah mostly a TD league.

Should I trade...
My: Dez Bryant and Marshawn Lynch
for
His: Jason Witten and Beanie Wells


My roster:
QB: Tony Romo
RB: Ray Rice
RB: Shonn Greene
WR: DeSean Jackson
WR: Steve Smith (Carolina)
TE: Antonio Gates
K: Rob Bironas
Def: Ravens

Bench: Darren McFadden, Marshawn Lynch, Willis McGahee, Mike Tolbert, Dez Bryant, Jabar Gaffney, Chad Henne

I would not. The great Witten days are over. I see you have Gates and he's hurt but there are probably just as good options available via free agency such as ben watson, a hernandez, shockey, etc. I am not sold on Wells either. Hightower is a much better option in the passing game and AZ figures to be playing from behind most of the time.

Yeah Witten would just be Antonio Gates insurance and a bye week fill in. I just feel like now is the time to get Beanie if he I'm going to do it. He was injured at the beginning of the year, then didn't get touches and then got 20 touches last week. I think he is the guy going forward for Arizona and at some point they are going to hand the keys of the offense to him. Any other thoughts?

I wouldnt, I think Lynch is worth even more in a TD league. Plus when would you ever start Witten over Gates?

The only time I'd start Witten over Gates would be when Gates is injured and when gates has a bye week.
