The reason I am asking for a 2nd rounder is because I lost mine in a previous trade. But, I wouldn't be opposed to replacing that pick with a player instead; do you think there's fair value in one of his WR?
I'm going to guess that your partner probably doesn't place a real high value on Russell relative to Schaub. While many underrate Schaub, I'm guessing his current owners are well aware of what he is capable of doing in this offense... just saying since I think trying to pull a good WR from the other team could be tough because of that.

That said, in a start-2WR league with a flex, adding Wayne to Welker with Bryant in reserve ought to be pretty tempting in a PPR. I'd make a play for either Walter or Nelson in lieu of that 2nd rounder, though Walter has some risk since this is a contract year for him, plus you already have Angry Dre... so maybe Nelson then. Yeah. Walter is a far better value this season, but you'd already be Texans heavy with Schaub and Dre, so go for Nelson. Walter probably has better value this year, but it's already a bit risky to have your QB1 and WR1 on the same roster. I'd take Nelson over a 2nd because (a) you need a WR and (b) Nelson has 2nd round value with a year already under his belt. It's a crowded sitch there in Green Bay (and honestly, I like James Jones there more), but Nelson seems like a safer gamble than a 2nd.

Jarrett is waiver wire material in a 25-man roster in a 12-team league, but I have him in one of my leagues with a similar set-up taking the last spot on my roster. Got him cheap, he has the skills to produce in PPR... not a bad stash if you have the roster spot to kill imo.
