Who is the elite wide reciever. Crayton is out of a job so I assume it's Roy Williams. There aren't enough balls to go around to both TO, Witten and Barber and now you add Williams. Only dilutes the touches. Julius isn't as valuable now that Morris is getting healthier and the Seahawks are just plain aweful and Rudi and the Lions are worse. I wouldn't give up Forte for any combination of those guys. It's a NO for me on this trade. My theory is always to come out of the trade with the best guy. Best guy in this trade is Forte. You down grade your RB's significantly for a small if any upgrade for your WR's and you get a bunch of junk to go with it.

Why don't you try to trade LJ for a WR, see what you can package with him. There's got to be someone that needs a RB in your league, no?

Keep Forte. Especially in a keeper league.

I say no too...you're trading a future star RB (and LJ might have something left in the tank) for a question mark in Roy Williams and a bunch of junk. I like the above idea...keep Forte, he's going to be stout, and trade LJ for a decent WR.

Absolutely not. Like others have said, try and trade LJ for a WR. Very unlikely right now though, now that he is suspended this week. Wait for a good week and dump him like there is no tomorrow.

Definitely second this remark. The fact that this is a keeper league means you hold onto Forte that much more.
