The Trade:

I give him M Harrison and W Parker
He gives me C Williams (RB, tampa bay) and Steve Smith

Thoughts?

There are rumblings that the Steve Smith injury has more to do with his contract than with his hammy. If that is the case then look for him to miss more games this year than he plays. I dont like this trade.

Don't even consider that. Steve Smith has two hammys...one's lingering enough...two is ugly.

Last year, I won our league on the back of Larry Johnston and Steve Smith, so I know how he can perform - the hammy is what's been holding me back.

Don't make the trade - keep Harrison

You're giving up two pretty dependable players on good teams for two players who, at the moment, are going to be high-risk, high-reward. If Tampa gets its act together, then I'd expect Cadillac to be at least as good, if not better, than Parker. Plus, with L.T. and Taylor on the bench, you can afford to gamble at RB.

Likewise, if Smith comes back and Carolina gets it together, he should probably consistently outperform Harrison. It's a pretty big if, though, especially if he's sulking and given that the Colts look to be airing it out again as opposed to last year's (relatively) balanced attack. On top of this, while Smith is still out, your third WR is going to give you no help at all.

Personally, I probably wouldn't do it. You've got a good, solid team already, so I don't think you're in a position where you need to make a high-risk/high-reward gamble.
