    could anyone help justify me doing this???

    my other wideouts are
    S.Smith (car) Santonio, Moore, RWilliams, Nicks
    I think he gives me a good number 2/3 wr

    my RB's are
    MJD, Johnson, Mendy, Choice, Reggie

    Tough call.  I'd rather have the 2 great RBs than drop one for a low #1 at best.  Do you think Mendy, Choice or Reggie can make up for Johnson by the same margian that Colston can eclipse Nicks, Williams or Moore?  I would want a better WR for Johnson.

    My .02

    Keep Johnson.  You'll have 3 strong RBs and I'll assume you can use one as a flex every week (except Mendenhall on BYE next week). 

    If you were to make the deal, you'd have Colston and Moore competing against one another.  Just hope S. Smith can have some kind of turnaround or hope Moore/Nicks/Williams play how they're expected. Or like Munch said, shoot for a WR1

    I think you should be able to get a better receiver for Johnson too.  You have to change your avatar back also.

    dont do it. I was going to have to give up Wayne to get Johnson, and still am considering it.

    Colston is very hit or miss.

    mm/kqc - you make good points

    zoo - I have been trying but everyone has soured on CJ's rough start, I figure I give the fat kid some play he has been sitting on my bench for a while but wasn't that the perfect ass!!!! if I get a win the fat kid stays heheh

    Jack Smack - I dont really want to get rid of him but my strength is at RB so I have to move someone of value if I want value in return and I am 1-5 with this team believe it or not Ive got no production from my WR's

    Tundra - I agree Ive had Colston last year and vowed never to take him again after the pile of shit he was last year
    will  probably stand pat but my WR's blowwwwwwww

    thanks for the responses

    I tried to trade Ocho and sims walker for forte and guy not interested at all.

    Thought that was prety fair for both teams, but some people just cant let go of their #1 pick.

    I wouldn't of done that trade and I'm shocked that moron said no and isn't interested.

    I offered a guy wayne, ocho, barber for AP and he said no...guy is 1-5 and has no depth whatsoever and says no...some ppl are morons as I felt what I was offering was way too much.

    Never give up a top flight RB for a WR.  RB's are just too valuable.

    Yes I am learining for like the 3rd straight year RBs are too valuable. haha

    I think the people in homegrowns league see he has a shit ton of RBs, and they think they can get one cheap.

    If the draft was today, MJD, Chris Johnson, and Mendy are 1st round picks. Im gonna try and go after mendy maybe they wont think that much of him, and he will probably outscore Forte rest of year.

    Probably think im crazy but one reason I like Forte is he plays the Lions in week 16, so that would be for the championship, I wouldnt mind having forte vrs Lions JUST IN CASE I make it, but you gotta get there first.
