Noooo... You're giving up all three of your RBs that are all starting at the moment, and only getting one starting RB in return. Plus, giving up your top WR for an arguably better WR, still you'd be leaving yourself SOO thin if you pulled the trigger... If you could somehow keep either McGahee and Martin while still getting Forte and Fitz, I'd say that's closer to ready to pull the trigger.

Weight in on my decision?: http://www.fantasyfootballcafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=519842

i woudnt, just because it leaves you super thin in the case of injury (and with ingram its a decent possibility). Fitzgerald is a guy i have and like but he wont get amazing stats with his WB situation and Romo looks good so bryant will get his yards.

Benson > Tate (it's Green Bay. He'll get his scores and won't be playing 49ers D every week)
McGehee > Ingram (workload will be shared a lot more in NO)
Fitz > Bryant (tough one but Fitz is more proven and clear cut #1)
Forte < Martin (Forte will be giving up, and has already, TDs to Bush. I also think that TBs offense will pick things up once VJax, Martin, and Clark get acclimated with the offense more.)

Yes you will get a lot of arguments for Forte over Martin. But even if that's the case, I don't think the points gained from Forte and Fitz compensate enough for the depth you'd be giving up.

I wouldn't do it - as an earlier poster said, you're giving up too much at RB.
