Subject: Should I trade a QB??

I have the "misfortune" of having both Peyton Manning and Jay Cutler on my roster. Since I can only start 1 each week, should I consider trading one of them or keep them and start whomever has the best matchup?
I am pretty set at RB (Peterson and Willie Parker with Kevin Smith and Mendenhall on the bench), but could use another good receiver (I start Roy Williams and Braylon every week and have DeSean Jackson and Jerry Porter as well). Dallas Clark is my usual TE. If I trade, I'm thinking of going for a WR and maybe something else. I found a guy in my league who has only Favre at QB but was looking at asking for Calvin Johnson and Tony Gonzalez (who is currently on his bench) in return for one of my QBs.
So here are my questions: 1) Should I try and trade? 2) If so, which QB should go? 3) Is what I'm looking at a fair offer? 4) If not, what would you consider fair?
Thanks for your help. Cblack |

Misfortune? I don't think there's anything unfortunate about having Culter while Manning is struggling.
You're pretty set everywhere else, so I'd hang on to both until (if?) Manning starts to heat up. At that point, I'd trade Manning (seems to have the tougher schedule) for whatever you may need... and then some.
As for matchup switching, I'd just keep starting Cutler until he gives you a reason not to. Week 2 should have been tough for him, but wasn't.

Basically you're looking at trading a QB one for one for a WR, since Gonzo does nothing for you.
I'd pass here. All he's doing is complicating your lineup decisions every week. (Imagine starting Dallas Clark one week and having Gonzo light it up, or starting the wrong WR one week)
I think you should keep your options open, but for now hold tight. You may end up losing a RB to injury and then your extra Ace will come in much more valuable. (Its much too early in the season for this trade)
