The McFlys move again, turning their WR depth into a slight upgrade at TE that will pay immediate dividends. Jermichael Finley had two very potent weeks before being concussed early in week 3; With a bye in week 4, he should be back to full strength next week, but with the Hill Valley roster maxed out, there was a hole in the lineup for their rivalry week matchup with the PJers; So they packaged him with WR Brian Hartline (Currently the #17 WR in the league through three weeks) and grabbed Jason Witten, subsequently opening up a roster slot for QB Terrelle Pryor as a week four bye week fill-in for incumbent Aaron Rodgers. I like this move for Hill Valley, who not only addresses two immediate needs, but also upgraded at TE, diversified his portfolio, and managed to move stock from the back end of his arsenal of receivers. Silver City didn't do poorly in this deal- Hartline is a quality piece, even if he has played a little over his head to date. He improves SCFC's overall WR depth, and will probably be in the lineup more often than he is not- this week he replaces Steve Smith due to bye. Jermichael is not in Witten's class as a proven weekly contributor, but he has a chance to rectify that over the next ten weeks. A solid need based deal for both teams.
