Fantasy Football trade?

So my team is as follows:

QB1 Matt Stafford

WR1 Dez Bryant

WR2 Victor Cruz

RB1 C.J. Spiller

RB2 Trent Richardson

TE Vernon Davis

W/R Daryl Richardson

Bench:

Cam Newton

D McFadden

Mike Wallace

Fred Jackson

Chris Givens

Joique Bell

Someone offered me the following trade:

A.J. Green and David Wilson

for

C.J. Spiller

This is a perplexing trade in my mind. Last season, Green and Spiller had around the same amount of fantasy points, but Spiller had shared some playing time with Fred Jackson whom I have as well.

My gut is telling me not to take the trade, because I have better depth at WR on my bench... but David Wilson is the key here. I thought he was sort of a bust as a rookie last season, but I have no clue how he's doing this year and if he will make a significant impact as a RB this year.

What do you guys think?

    Do NOT accept. Spiller is a machine and racked up 1700 all purpose yards last year playing for his "shitty" team. I bet you he goes for 2000 all purpose yards this year. Making him a lock for a top 3 ppr pick. Once that dude finds a hole he is gone and that is a major threat in fantasy. Besides, AJ Green would add too much unnecessary depth to your WR.

    Dude take that, C.J. Spiller plays for a garbage team that won't be able to move the ball because of their inept QB. Wilson and Spiller could both end up being garbage players, but A.J. Green is a surefire stud.
