You'd absolutely HATE to do it, but with a bad team, you kinda have to take aggressive steps like that if you want to try to crawl back into it. You have a great #1 RB in McCoy and a passable #1b WR in Vincent Jackson. If you could take Romo and Johnson and deal him for another strong RB and a better QB, you might be able to take some steps in the right direction.

It's a dangerous homerun swing that could backfire miserably, but desperate times...

I had a team that really got hammered by injuries last year so I took the two healthy/productive players I had and traded them. I ended up making out like a bandit on a Frank Gore (I'm wanting to say Lloyd, M. Williams (TB) and Forte) and moved Reggie Wayne in a deal that got me McFadden after Darren got hurt (Wayne had just gone off for like 180 yards). I didn't really want to make either deal, but I had holes to fill and ended up getting 4 major contributors for 2 of them.

Sure, I got lucky, but sometimes you have to.
This. Megatron's value is at it's highest. Could it backfire and he scores 20 TDs? Yeah. But it's not like he's going to single handedly going to win you games. Find the guy who has Matt Stafford and ****ing rape him.
