Default FF advice - replacing mcnabb

so I am in a league that starts 2 rb and I have

W Parker
Tiki
F Gore
Joseph Addai

I have P. Rivers as my QB (as he was my backup and mcnabb is out).

I've been offered Romo for Tiki or Addai.

This is a no-brainer, right? (i've been starting gore and parker)

Your team is eerily similar to mine. I also had/have McNabb, Rivers, Gore, & Addai. Anyway I wish my trade deadline was still open. Id do the Tiki for Romo deal now!

I wish I could have Rivers to replace McNabb in my work league. I have the pleasure of starting my choice of Jason Campbell, Aaron Brooks, or JP Losman.
Good thing the rest of my team is pretty good.

I'm not so sure Romo will score that much better than Rivers the rest of the way...I'd keep the RB just in case you get another injury.

You also need to consider how much you are improving the other team by giving them Tiki. Your marginal improvement may be much lower than a potential playoff opponents.

I was pretty fortunate. I jumped on Romo in both leagues that I lost McNabb in.

I was so smart that I sat on Bledsoe as my backup because there was no way that undrafted guy from some tiny school could take over for him.

Oh well, you can't get em all right. (I've been telling myself that a lot this season)
