Too general of a question. It depends on who is desperate for WR. If your league only starts two WR, I doubt you have any takers. In a 3-WR league, you have a chance at getting a 3rd or 4th RB type. Say, Shane Vereen to Danny Woodhead kind of group.

2 WR league with 1 flex position where you can start either a WR or RB. His stock is as high as it's going to get, i need to get something while I can (preferably a TE).

I think it's actually as low as it's going to get, barring injury. Nobody thinks he has a QB and will do anything, but he's pretty good and the QB situation probably isn't as bad for him as it looks.

But right now you could probably trade him for someone like Jordan Cameron or Cook.

It can get lower by all means, in fact it will get to the point where nobody will even want him like fitzgerald last year

As proven by your original post...that is where its at..I think Will might be being awfully generous saying Cook or Cameron..as an owner of both TE's in various leagues..I wouldn't trade either of them for Stevie right now.

You could almost certainly get Heath Miller (if he's not on waivers), but a better move might be to look at Blackmon if the Blackmon owner is thin on starters for the first few weeks.

I think a team needing a rb would give up a Roddy White if they are set at WR.

Miles Austin, Eric Decker, or maybe a Colsten if the other team is desperate for a RB.

Atlanta is still in a pretty good situation and Steven Jackson will get the bulk of the carries and goal line touches. Rodgers is more of a change of pace guy.

I really do think Stevie's stock will rise a little after dropping lately. It's not like his skills have fallen apart, and when did he ever have a good QB?

I think it really depends on what your team looks like. I'd keep him as a 3rd option WR or lower for now. If Manuel plays, and he should sometime in September, I think Johnson has a good amount of value. Who else is Manuel gonna throw to? Now if Manuel is out, forget it. The Bills have no one to throw the ball to him.

Wil had a nice suggestion to maybe pick up Heath Miller. But someone (maybe it was Wil), suggested to just hang on to Stevie Johnson. That's not a bad idea.

In 3 seasons, he's had yardage of 1073, 1004, and 1046. Pretty consistent. (Even if it came from Fitzpatrick.)

If you trade him, you probably won't get a 1K WR in exchange.

Revisiting - if you want Stevie off your roster, now is the time to move him.

I have both him and Wallace. Not sure which to keep and which to move? I might need to couple one of them with David Wilson to get a good RB. My RB's are: Peterson, Wilson, D. Williams. Probably go after Gore now that he might be "bought low".

EJ looks a little bit better then John Skelton and certainly better then Fitzpatrick. and if Stevie can have 1000 yard seasons with fitzpatrick he certainly can with EJ Manuel.

I found someone desperate in my league for WR and traded Royal for Gates. Look for someone who is desperate at WR and target their TE. I went after someone who had 2 good TE's but really nothing in terms of WR. If I were you I would do the same. Target someone who you think may be desperate for the help and make that point to them. Drive home their need for a good WR.
