Trade McCaffrey? (1 Viewer)

12-Team Deep PPR League starting 1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE and 2 Flex (RB/WR/TE), . Play two games a week, one versus other teams and one versus league average. 

We are currently sitting at 10-0, but WR depth was a concern from the start. Antonio Brown blowing up hurt us even more and we are now looking at a very underwhelming WR core. The rest of our roster has been keeping us on top, especially our RB core anchored by CMC, but our WRs are still in decline and we need to do something to strengthen it. Right now we are pondering the following trade:

Give: Christian McCaffrey, Michael Gallup Get: Saquon Barkley, Adam Thielen, Tyler Boyd

If there is anyone in the league I would even consider trading CMC for, it would be Saquon. This move is obviously full of risks, but are the potential rewards worth giving up the hottest fantasy player in the league for? Please share your thoughts and I will comment on yours too.

ROSTER:

QB: L. Jackson, D. Jones RB: C. McCaffrey, L. Fournette, D. Henry, M. Gordon WR: Antonio Brown, A. Callaway, R. Cobb, M. Gallup, M. Valdes-Scantling, S. Watkins, P. Williams                                          TE: E. Engram, M. Andrews K: W. Lutz DEF: Rams, Texans

 
I'd pull the trigger on this. Tough to move C-Mac but a legit arguement that C-Mac = Barkley. Both Thielen and Boyd are individually worth more than Gallup and instantly become your top 2 WR's. That's a pretty nice upgrade at WR considering the large amount of players in the starting lineup.

 
I vote no. I'd much rather have a healthy CMC than a banged up RB on a bad team, and those wide recievers are just stop gap players.
