Antonio Brown Trade (1 Viewer)

12 team, standard scoring. start 1 qb, 2 rb, 2 wr, 1 te, 1 flex

Give: Alshon Jeffery, Frank Gore, Spencer Ware, Martellus Bennett

Receive: Antonio Brown, Eddie Lacy, Gary Barnidge

my team:

QB - Brady, Stafford

RB - David Johnson, Christine Michael, Spencer Ware, Arian Foster, Deangelo Williams, Frank Gore

WR - Alshon Jeffery, Tyrell Williams, John Brown, Robert Woods

TE - Marty Bennett, Kyle Rudolph

I'm tempted to pull the trigger so I'll have a top 3 player at qb, rb and wr, but it seems like a lot of depth to give away. 
Thanks, post your link to your question after your comment.

 
I think it's a good trade for you and the longer the season goes on the less depth is a concern.  Late in the season if you get a an injury to a key guy usually it doesn't matter that you have ok depth because that depth can't replace the key guy's production. 

 
Replace Gore with Foster and I like this trade for you. Alshon Jeffrey doesn't look fit and is losing a ton of targets without Cutler playing and he won't be back anytime soon with Hoyer playing well so I don't think your giving up a great deal losing him. 

Tou still keep decent RB depth getting lacy and play the match ups with Barnidge and Rudolph.

Thanks for the input. I guess I'm nervous about giving away ware with the way he's been playing, and that I effectively won't get the "full" Antonio brown for 2 weeks since Ben is out this week and they have a bye next week.

Don't think the other guy will do that, he needs rb help and likes gores floor. 

 
Go for it as it is then. I understand your feelings about Ware. I have him on one of my teams and as Charles got closer to returning and his couple of fumbles, I tried to trade him to the Charles owner in my league but left it too late to sort a deal so we said we would wait until the weekend was over and then trade. Now there's now way i'm letting him go. The Charles owner can trade Charles to me as Ware's back up...lol.

You'll still have good depth after losing Gore and Ware. I'd keep an eye on Lacys ankle though before pulling the trigger.
