Default Stuck with too many receivers on same team?

I have both Packer starting receivers (Walker and Driver) and their tight end (Franks).

Is this a big problem for me? I did not prioritize WR in my draft and they happended to be the best available at the time of my pick.

My back ups are Lee Evans and Keyshawn Johnson at WR and Heath Miller at TE.

Should I be looking to trade at least one of these Packers?

Yes. For one thing, you are totally f'ed on GB's bye week. For another, you are totally f'ed if Favre goes down and you have a rookie throwing to all your receivers. For another, you are in bad shape whenever GB is playing a good pass defense. Those are alot of potentially bad things to happen. I'd look to deal if you can get pretty close to equal value.

SammyKid1's response is an overreaction.

Having wide receivers from one team should reduce variance. That's good if you're strong at QB and RB. It's a problem if you're weak there.

TRUE!
The Packers don't have a strong enough O-Line anymore for Green/Davenport to rack up TDs and yards. Favre is going to throw a lot this year and those three guys are pretty much the only ones on the team who can run routes and catch Favre's passes.

I would try and unload one of the WR if you can. IMO Miller is going to be a better play at TE for you than Franks is anyway.
