If you getting rid of Lynch I say do it. Cooks has the potential to be a top 10 WR in FF. Murray is a good RB. Do it. The Saints offense didnt have all its weapons. Sure they have some problems but we signed Josh Morgan back so we have 2 deep threats with him and Cooks. Spiller might play this weekend to help keep the defense honest. Cooks will be fed the ball. All this talk about running more sounds nice but until the defense comes back from injury we will air it out.

In my opinion, it depends on what the rest of your team looks like. The last 2 years Lynch has been a back and forth back who seems to get dangerous towards the end of the season. In my experience with my league I have always traded for Lynch at about week 4. I happened to draft him this year and don't plan on getting rid of him. St. Louis has a very very good front 7 so I wouldn't judge the week 1 for the rest of the season. Cooks has a great match up of course this weekend, but I think the NO line has some problems. I think everyone has been looking for the a great Raiders back for the last 5 years, but none are consistent. If your desperate for a WR, (and I think Cooks is going to be getting a lot of attention each week because who else?), then maybe. But I would ask for a different back, seems like they are trying to give you Cooks for Lynch, just address your needs for your roster for player like Lynch. Good Luck with your season!

Quick Edit: I would wait to see what Lynch does against GB. Forte just ran all over them with Chicago's O-line. If you want to unload him, do it after he has a good week.

With that line up, I personally wouldn't do that trade. M. Bryant is back week 4, so I think your good at WR. I have the same to RBs and if I had Yeldon, I would probably start him over Miller on some weeks because Tannehill seems to forget about him if he doesn't break off 8 yard gains the first 3 times he hands him the ball. haha. Of course, if Lynch doesn't look good against GB tomorrow I'll consider trading him away next week. I have the same concerns that the o-line is very weak without Unger. haha

That is my exact concern with Seattle's offensive line is the loss of Unger.

My fantasy strategy is always collect the top tier players, so i never look to trade 1 great player for 2 good ones, i like to do the opposite, especially in the early weeks when a FA pickup can end up being a starting player by the end of the season.

You are concerned with Seattle's O-Line?? Do you think the Raiders have a better one? Murray could be a good back but the Raiders suck. Lynch had 23 touches last week. Murray had 11. Can do much with 11 carries. Keep Lynch.
