Team with depth but lacking stars

[zipster987]

I'm 1-5 in a 10 team, standard scoring league with the basic starters 1/2/2/1/1/1 and a RB/WR flex. I started 0-5 with some ugly 5-10 pt losses and have been able to fleece the waiver wire for players, but no real studs. Trying to turn some of my depth into a better situation.

QB: McNabb, Hasselbeck, Gerrard (None have been great, hence keeping 3 around)

RB: Slaton, Mendehnall, Moreno, Pierre Thomas, Sproles

WR: Colston, Fitz, Jennings, Welker, Manningham

TE: Celek

 

Trying to get Phillip Rivers off a guy who's also got Brees. He wants

Manningham+Mendenhall for Rivers+Antonio Bryant

 

I think that's giving up a little to much, am I wrong? What would make the trade more favorable for me? Sub Welker or Jennings in for Manningham or is this a good time to sell high on Manningham? If I could get Brees instead of Rivers in there, it then becomes a good move right?

I would look to upgrade my RBs before i even touched my QB.

 

You could put Slaton + Jennings up there for a top 8 back most likely.
