Definitely Edge, DJ and Barlow. Jones is hurt, Staley only gets yardage (I guess it depends on your league scoring system) and Gardner is wildly inconsistent. Yes, Barlow sucks, but he has nowhere to go but up. Edge is a top 5 back this year and DJ has been the 'Hawks go-to receiver.

I guess I'd want the Jackson/Edge/Barlow side. But its kind of a wash, rb/rb/wr for rb/rb/wr, you don't really gain much.

Question #2: Would you trade Antonio Gates and Lee Suggs for Rudi Johnson and Alge Crumpler? Suggs is one of my two starting running backs (I have nobody else).

true, but i disagree, for pitt, staley almost never scores touchdowns, they mostly give it to bettis for those scores.

Well according to the scoring for our league so far, this trade is roughly a wash in points scored. (193 vs. 208).

I am betting that Jackson is going to finally start scoring TDs and that the Edge is going to keep on rolling. Hopefully Barlow will generate some points, but if Stephen Davis gets healthy or Anthony Thomas takes over for Jones, I am golden...

Considering Thomas Jones is injured I wouldn't touch him.

In my league Gates has scored over 100 pts and Crumpler 62. That's a huge hit to get an RB who is better but not generating huge numbers...

Gates is worth SO much more than that...
