Because this league has a flex spot, I think I would do the deal. Vernon Davis is still a top tight end, but I'm sure you know that when Antonio Gates is healthy he is far and away the number one tight end. Without a doubt it is a downgrade at TE, but Ryan Grant should be able to put up RB2 numbers.
i like the trade ..if grant stays healthy ur getting the better end of the deal... davis is a good te and i think grant has a great year on the best offense in the league
I don't think you are as bad off at RB as you think, but regardless I like Grant to have a bounce back year, and the drop from Gates to Davis isn't as much as you think.
When I first read the title of the post I thought there had to be a catch. After reading the entire post I see there is no catch. This is a steal for you. Make this deal in a heart beat and don't look back.
