Someone on my fantasy football league wants to trade me WR Jerry Porter and Dallas Defense for my Chicage Defense
Note: My WR are Joey Galloway, Larry Fitzgerald, and Terrel Owens on my starter list
On my Bench for WR are Muhsin Muhammad and Reggie Brown
Also I have a San Francisco Defense as back up.
Should I take the trade? If I do take the trade which WR should I drop.

Absolutely not!! You already have great depth in the WR position and Jerry Porter is not even as good as either of your back ups. Though I do think the Cowboys have a great defense, it would be a mistake to think they could even come close to putting up the same fantasy points as the Bears. This trade would definitely hurt you so I would avoid it.

Dont make that trade!!!! Chicago has a better defense than Dallas, if not the most explosive and highest scoring defense in the league, and you already have a very solid wide receiving corps. Porter isnt going to be a factor in fantasy football because Oakland doesnt have anything going for them. No running game, an unproven rookie QB in the NFL, and no other supporting receivers to take pressure and double teams off of Porter. You wouldnt improve anything by making this trade. Hope this helps, good luck this season!!!

Dont do it for a WR especially porter. See if you can fill another need. Here is the truth. The top rated Defense is that much better than the 5th.
In the past 3 years the Lions D has a few points less than the Dolphins D.

Brown would be the drop, but it's not at all clear that Jerry Porter will do much more than him this year. Chicago's defense is solid enough and the D in "Big D" might get a little smaller without Parcells pulling the reins. If I were you, I'd let this trade idea go. If you do take it, I'd consider packaging Galloway and trying to get someone better than Porter thrown in.

NOOOO...you already have one of the best defenses and he wants to give you a WR with an unproven QB. You already have good WR's and if you look at the Fantasy value from last year (depending how your league is set up) the Bears D outscored all WR's.
Reggie Brown will have a 900+ yard season with 7-8 td's
