I was offered J. Graham/CJ Anderson for Cousins/G Bernard... (1 Viewer)

[BoKnows_]

A guy in my league offered to trade me Jimmy Graham and CJ Anderson for Kirk Cousins and Giovani Bernard.  I have Olsen on IR for now and have to stream TEs in a league very thin at TE. Thoughts?  I like the complimentary schedules I have with Cousins and Watson on my roster, not to mention insurance if one goes down.  Not sure if Watson will keep the same TD pace, which has been the basis for his huge #s, though I like him a lot when he has the favorable matchups.  

League is a 12-team PPR (1QB/2RB/2WR/1TE/1 flex..)

Roster includes:

QB: D. Watson (off waivers)

RBs: J Howard, Chris Thompson, Crowell, Riddick, Bernard 

WRs: J Nelson, Diggs, A Jeffrey, Moncrief

TE: Olsen (IR til week 12?) so I'm streaming in a league very thin at TE

He otherwise has Kareem Hunt, Zeke, AJ Green, Mike Evans and D Hopkins

I would definitely do this.  You have Watson so can live without Cousins, and Bernard is basically worthless and you get back 2 solid starters.

Damn that other owner is stacked.  Who does he have at TE that allows him to trade you Graham?  

I'd do the deal if I were you.  You'll be fine rolling with Watson.  Giving up Cousins is an overpay, yes, because he's going to be the best piece in the deal, but it helps your team enough that I'd do it.

He has Hunter Henry as a 2nd TE. 

If not for Watson's matchup at Seattle this week I probably wouldn't hesitate.

Regardless of Watson's matchup at Seattle, you should do the trade. Graham and CJA are 2 solid starters and will make up for Watson's bad matchup. It's a winning trade long term for you as well.

How thin are TEs in your league that you can't approximate Graham's meager production as a Seahawk?

Too many teams rolling with 2, even 3, TEs...leaving Hooper, Dickson and Miller among the most viable options for this week.
