After trade. Who to drop?

So, I just traded Santonio Holmes for Ray Rice. Value wiseit's probably a loss for me but my other 3 WRs are White, Fitz and Colston so Holmes is not an essential piece and I have huge hole at RB.

Now I need to drop a RB and pick up a WR. Who goes?

Leon Washington
Addai
Ahmad Bradshaw
Beanie Wells

I am leaning towards Wells since Arizona does not like to run and they got Hightower stealing touches. Bradshaw is back up, but I am not too sure about Jacobs lasting a season, so I want to hold on to him.

Would all of these guys be scooped off the waiver wire in your league .... they would in mine. Maybe make a trade to upgrade even more . . like Bradshaw and Wells to the Jacobs owner for a good back, or one of them for a WR you want. All of them are in time shares so some owners might pay a premium for the handcuff.

I agree that Wells is probably the one to drop if you are dropping.

I can pick up Eddie Royal right now. Or Mark Clayton. Jacobs owner's third back is Larry Johnson. Second starter is Sproles, so it is unlikely that I can get anything out of him. I am gonna drop Wells most likely and live with the pain of him breaking out later.

If you can get Sproles on the cheap I would go for that. LT seams to be very injury prone these days.

Sproles offer got turned down lightning quick. I decided to drop Wells. I am gonna hold on to Bradshaw as late season wild card.
