Fantasy trade question?

[bdg8]

Am I crazy for considering this trade

A guy offered me Alshon for Dez.

I think Dez is better than Alshon. I also think Dez might miss a couple more games, although Alshon is not 100% either. The only reason I am considering is that I think Alshon will play this weekend and as of right now my receivers are

Deandre H.-I will play
Steve Smith- I will have to play
Dez-hurt
Decker-hurt
M. Thomas-Bye

So between now and Sunday I need to get a third receiver. Waiver wire is obviously weak

Thanks

Not crazy, I'd say it's pretty close to a toss-up.

I'd rather own Jeffrey the rest of the season

I believe Dez is going to come back and kill it, plus Alshon is battling nagging stuff as usual. He will get tons of targets with White out though... so I think it's a coin toss. To me it comes down to motivation. Dez has a chip the size of Australia... for a team with something to play for. Luck will determine the right choice in hindsight. Good luck

I'm a Jeffery owner and I would do it. They are both injured. The difference is that Jeffery is playing through it but I don't know if he will ever be healthy. He just can't seem to stay healthy. I also play to win championships and I do not want any of a Norman vs Jeffery match up in the championship game if I make it that far.

It's close to even but I'd stick with Dez personally. QB situation in Dallas is just way better then it is in Chicago.

I think Dez is the better long term play. Also think Dez will get bump when Romo is back. But it sounds like he is out Sunday and has a bye in 2 weeks. So I would not have him for 2 out of the next three games and I have not had the best start.

Plus I like trades. Usually the people in my league don't trade, so when they become possible, I get excited.
