Marshawn Lynch for Victor Cruz?

Need some opinions, people. In my league, I was offered Victor Cruz for Marshawn Lynch. My RB's are Lynch, Richardson, Sproles, and Le'Veon Bell. My WR's are Amendola, Edelman, Garcon, and then I have a steep fall off to Michael Floyd (or I can pick up Alshon Jeffrey instead of trading all together). What do you think?

    Um...while your Rbs are pretty good and you could use a WR, this trade is an absolute rip off for you. If you are looking to trade for a WR. you can get a lot more than Cruz for Lynch (like Megatron). Cruz's offense is horrendous, and even though he's a great WR, guys on bad offenses are always going to be inconsistent. Meanwhile, Lynch is a top 5 RB..

    You really don't realize you've just been insulted? Cruz had one big game but otherwise his offense is crumbling. Meanwhile, you have an elite, top 5 RB. And you seriously are thinking of giving him up?

    You may need some depth at WR, but you hardly give up the most valuable player on your squad (and he is - there's a reason he was taken in the to 10 overall in drafts). Sproles is probably your #2 RB, so a fair trade would be either Richardson or Bell. But even with them, you'd want a more proven WR, because starting RBs are worth so much more. That's because there are so few of them.

    You may need to do a combo type deal where you give up Amendola or Edelman, along with Bell or Richardson, and you'd get a BIG upgrade at WR (I'm talking any of the elite ones) and then a downgrade at RB to someone who's more a fill-in type like Williams or McGahee.

    Don't undervalue those RBs.
