FF Trade - Tate for Ryan?

My squad is currently in 2nd place, but I just lost Schaub for the year. I have Dalton on the bench but I worry about him in weeks like this one, against Baltimore possibly without Green. I've been offered the following trade:

I trade Ben Tate
I receive Matt Ryan and Aaron Hernandez

Here is my squad:

QB J.Freeman/A.Dalton (losing Schaub really hurts)
RB R.Rice
RB M.Bush
WR D.Jackson
WR D.Bryant
TE K.Winslow
FL M.Tolbert

BN J.Freeman/A.Dalton
BN B.Tate
BN D.Williams
BN M.Crabtree
BN P.Garcon

What do you think? Should I trade Tate for Ryan and Hernandez?

I'd take it. You're upgrading two positions and getting pretty good value in the process, which is always nice.

Did it go through? That looks like a really good trade for you.

Absolutely. Tate is a backup to Arian Foster now and Hernandez could be an upgrade over Winslow depending on who Brady decides to throw to.

Yep, I pulled the trigger, and of course Winslow and Dalton have huge days.

Hopefully Hernandez comes through for me tonight.

Thanks for weighing in everyone.
