Default Team advice going forward

EDITED: Roster updated and see latest posts for further updates.

Yahoo one-year, 14 teams, standard cats (except all TDs=6pts, INTs=-2pts)
QB,3WR,2RB,TE,K,DEF,6BN

QB: Vick, Shaub; WR: Bowe, V.Jackson, Heyward-Bey, J.Gordon, A.Hawkins; RB: Lynch, C.Johnson, Mendenhall, P.Thomas, J.Bell
TE: Daniels; K: Forbath; DEF: Green Bay

Current situation
- Daniels is on a bye this week so just picked up Clark and dropped Powell.
- Currently 3-4 so right in the thick of it (7th place but only one game separates 4th-12th). Top 8 make the playoffs.
- Team is very inconsistent as weekly totals have been: 131, 74, 63, 121, 47, 122 and 68.
- Sent out a feeler offer of my Thomas/Hawkins for Stewart/K.Wright. Mainly to go for Stewart as per yesterday's ramblings advice.
- Both Lynch and Johnson have a week 11 bye. Need to think about that as could make or break my season. Thoughts on offering Johnson if he has another good week? Ramblings also suggested that as Locker should be back soon and Johnson's been poor with him as QB.

If I'm missing any relevant information please let me know. I'm not the strongest in football knowledge and I don't see any games so any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

SOrry, didn't see this post before I replied in the Powell one.

Can you post the team for the McGahee owner?

For an update, the Stewart owner rejected simply with 'no thanks'.

Here's the McGahee owner's team. Note that he is also 3-4.

QB: Big Ben, Cutler
WR: Welker, Nelson, M.Williams, J.Jones
RB: Turner, McGahee, Morris, Ridley
TE: Finley, Miller
K: Prater
DEF: Cleveland, Tampa Bay

I've suffered another loss so that's 3-5 and still looking at week 11 where both Lynch and Johnson are on byes and I could be in trouble. Also, my WR are struggling/inconsistent generally so I was thinking of this potential offer to the league leader, who just suffered a big loss this week. He's still 6-2 though.

What are your thoughts on:
I offer: C.Johnson, Bowe
To receive: R.Bush, V.Cruz

EDIT - Not considering making this offer at the moment

First of all, I'm not concerned with 'best player' and 'win/lose' so please focus on my situation (and theirs of course). I'm not sure how you feel it's valued on the trade alone given Bush has already had his bye and Johnson is still due. Also both Bush and Cruz had poor production yesterday so it might be a decent time to go after them. He also has Rice so perhaps the thought of having Rice and C.Johnson would be appealing to him, and Bowe still has name value, though not sure if he can get back to what we have seen of him before. His other main WR are A.Johnson and Decker.

I'm not offering yet as I don't want to make a panic move, though such an offer should not be delayed too much. He'll be focusing on the stretch run and peaking in the playoffs, rather I just want to make the playoffs. Thanks.

I wouldn't give up Cruz alone for Bowe and C2K.

Cruz has more long tds than either of those guys and in a PPR league is clutch. He's the 2nd ranked WR behind Harvin.

I do agree try to sell high on those guys but not convinced the guy will give up Cruz and Bush, but worth a try.

Thanks. To clarify it's not a PPR league and yep Cruz is quite valuable. What might also make a trade tough with him (player value aside) is that he's in a position of strength especially if he keeps winning.

Any thoughts/suggestions on my situation/dilemma?

Ok perhaps my offer idea is a bit much, thanks for clearing that up for me. So I would appreciate if you have any advice on what I can do going forward given my situation outlined above.

Small move but maybe it'll help when I need it - dropped Clark (who I don't need anymore) for Joique Bell.
