0-2 to start season trade my best player advice

Ok everyone down 0-2 in a 10-team ppr league. I'm averaging 108 points while everyone else is at 120+ so I need to make a major move. Here is my full lineup of players:

 

Matt Ryan, ODJ, Hilton, E. Sanders, Fournette, Mixon, LeSean McCoy, Yeldon, Peyton Barber, Eric Ebron, David Njoku, Tyler Lockett

 

I was hurt big time by the injury bug losing Fournette & Mixon but those guys eventually will come back and help me out. Here's what I'm thinking about doing. The only player I have that I think anyone will accept in a trade is TY Hilton. I'm thinking about trading him and targeting a top tier TE like Kelce and Ertz. 

 

Does it seem like a good idea to trade my best player to blow this thing up and start making moves and use the waiver wire to replace him with a solid WR? Or is it too early?

 

I do not want to go 0-3.

 

A few side notes....if I trade TY Hilton I can pick up a guy like John Brown or maybe Keelen Cole on the waiver wire. Also tomorrow with my waiver pick I'm going for Gio Bernard to replace Mixon while he's out.

 

I just feel like I need to make some sort of move and mix things up. I can't keep taking these crap weeks from Ebron/Njoku.

 

Thank you

*bump* 

 

So I ended up trading TY Hilton & LeSean McCoy for Dalvin Cook.....what is everyone thoughts on that? My gut tells me most people will tell me I gave up too much but I felt like I needed to get a top 10 RB that I could count on for the rest of the season since I'm dealing with injuries to Fournette & Mixon.

 

On the waiver wire last night I picked up DeSean Jackson, John Brown, and Keelan Cole.

 

Thanks everyone

Oh my...that is rough. You'd have been so much better off just picking up Gio on the wire and riding out your injuries to Fournette and Mixon because you had a solid roster and Cook doesn't seem to help you. Ouch.

 

Unfortunately I had the #7 pick on the waiver wire and Gio went number one. If had I had the #1 waiver pickup I would've stayed put but the guys I play against are ruthless and the guy with the #1 waiver pick texted me and said "lol I'm getting Gio"....what an ass.

I agree with Tasandmnm i think you jump the gun on this one..  who did you drop for the other 2 guys you got from WW

 

I dropped Case Keenum and picked up DeSean Jackson, dropped David Njoku and got John Brown, and dropped Peyton Barber and got Keelan Cole. I also picked up Bilal Powell and didn't drop anyone for him. 

 

Once Fournette, Mixon, and Cook are all back full time and producing I could trade one of them for a top tier WR.
