I have been offered Phil Rivers and Steve Johnson for Ryan Fitzpatrick and Larry Fitzgerald.
Is this a good trade? Sorry for being a newbie lol

Its real simple you improve at QB about the same as you lose at WR. What I mean by that is you would start Eli so you need to look at the gain above Eli not the gain above Fitzpatrick. I love Rivers and Johnson. But I don't like Johnson as much as Fitz.

Id say its a win win trade. Your WR's will take a hit while you gain at QB.

I would do the trade. I would not fell good with Eli Manning being the starter every week and Rivers is a very nice upgrade. I like Steve Johnson this year and I think he could be up some solid WR2 points. good luck!

Fitz really doesnt factor at all into the trade..it's a 2 for 1....the trade basically breaks down to Manning and Fitzgerald for Rivers and Johnson (the trade will put Manning on your bench )....so the real question is would you rather have....Manning and Fitzgerald or Rivers and Johnson?
