Hmm.. your WR's would be pretty bad if you got rid of Colston. Your top 2 would be from AZ and not the top 2 on the team either. While you may struggle early with Lynch out I'm not so sure I would do it. It really depends what kind of league scoring you have set up as Williams is obviously the highest rated player in the trade. How many WR's/RB's do you start? PPR? You are already fairly deep at RB with Grant/Lynch/Jones/Moreno so not sure if the upside is worth it but you would be getting the best player in the trade and if you trade that's what you really want to accomplish. It's definitely a fair trade, however

Id be interested to see what who his other receivers are, other than Hixson. Still, with Stewart's health concerns, I expect Williams to repeat last year's performance. He will be a stud. I would pull the trigger on that trade, but first see if you could get a slightly better receiver in return. Colston's value is at a premium right now, and I think people are overrating him a bit.

I don't think you should do this, your WRs become crazy thin after this deal.
I don't even know that Hixon is the #1 for the Giants?
Maybe it will be Nicks or Smith by midseason and Colston is just a monster when he's healthy, Moreno could be similar to Forte last season as well, so...

Pass on that. Cliff Levingston disagrees with Ajousu; Williams won't repeat his performance last year and your WRs would be very thing after that.

What do you think will hold Williams back? He's got a great offensive line, a coach that loves to run the ball, and Stewart is a questionmark at the moment. Even when Stewart was healthy last year, Williams put up big numbers. What would make you think he's gonna flop this year? If his numbers weren't so great last year, I'd say he'd actually be in a situation to improve.

He won't come close to the TD's he scored last year .. but other than that I agree with your analysis

I would consider the trade, although you're fairly weak at WR then. Still, a Williams/Grant starting set is pretty good. And I don't get the Williams drop-off thought. The only way that happens is with injury. Right now, its his backup who's injured.
