Demaryius Thomas for Christine Michael? (1 Viewer)

[Mr. Know-It-All]

I have Antonio Brown, Demaryius Thomas, Jeremy Maclin, Jimmy Graham and Michael Thomas (start 3 WR/TE).  My RBs are terrible - CJ Anderson, Devontae Booker, Duke Johnson, DeAngelo Williams and Dion Lewis.

I have been offered Christine Michael for Demaryius Thomas.  Thomas Rawls is available as a free agent, but I need a RB this week and Duke Johnson is barely startable.

Do I make the move - then pickup Rawls as insurance?  AFter this week I get Brown back from BYE 

Added note - Adams and LaFell are available on the wire if I do this trade to get Week 8 coverage for the loss of Thomas.

If it matters .5 PPR, 1 pt at 60, 80 and 100 yards with +1 each addl 15 yards.

Thoughts?

Have you shopped DT around?

Michael will be a decent start the next 2 weeks and if you can pick up Rawls so you will have him in 2 weeks when he is healthy that would be great.

answer mine please?

I would make the deal and pick up Adams and Rawls immediately.  Michael Thomas should go right to your starting lineup and you won't miss DT that much.

I would make the deal.  I am not so sure Rawls is anything more than COP when he gets back.  Michael has performed extremely well and I think he maintains the majority of the touches. 

Thomas is not the Thomas of old and you have other similar WR options to cover him.  Do it.

Thanks for the input, made the trade to get Michael and was fortunate enough to get Rawls as handcuff.  Missed on Adams, but hoping Michael Thomas fills the void left by DT.
