I have Donovan Mcnabb and Brett Favre as my QBs. I have Chris Johnson and Terrell Owens as WR. I am a little uncomfortable with Brett Favre. I have Aaron Brooks as a back-up for my bye weeks but I like Michael Vick. I just don't know if I should give up Terrell Owens for him though.

Well, the first thing to do before most trades would be to check the scoring for your particular fantasy game. Different games have different scoring. I don't know offhand when Dallas, Green Bay and Atlanta have their bye weeks, so that could be a factor.
My gut in this case would be DO NOT make the trade unless you have other great receivers and are decimated in running backs. Take it from a Virginia Tech alumni, Vick is another injury risk. Sure, he MAY give you good passing AND running numbers, but he is known for running too much and getting hurt often (unfortunately, so is McNabb, but I think McNabb is getting a little older and wiser, and may be cutting the running out of his game somewhat.) T.O. is a headcase, no doubt, but I don't see Dallas using too much else that often in the form of a passing game.
You want to trade someone, trade Farve for a decent backup QB etc, (but wait until after he has a decent game or two, Farve MAY be a complete non-issue after the shutout yesterday.) You are in a possible tough spot, especially if McNabb gets hurt, but I don't think Vick is the answer.

Vick is a HORRIBLE fantasy QB. You can like his style or whatever all you want, but he is not a good QB for fantasy football, certainly not worth giving up T.O. for. In fact, you really don't need a back up QB until the bye week for McNabb. You could really drop Favre and Brooks, then build some WR/RB depth on your team (you'll need it because of injuries and bye weeks).
But do NOT trade T.O. for Vick, man that's a BAD trade.

Why would you do that? Sure Vick is a playmaker but you have Mcnabb on ur team, would u ever consider starting Vick over Mcnabb? I dont know of any Chris Johnson but im assumin ur talking bout Chris Chambers hes good but T.O is a guaranteed pro-bowler if he completes the season(cmon he only got deactivated last year) you shouldnt trade ur best wr for a qb who's going to be a back-up.

Even without knowing the scoring system, NO.
Even if you have to start two QBs, Vick is not worth TO. He's a 14 TD a year guy. TO is a major weapon, on a potentially explosive offense.
Dunn and Norwood make Atlanta a run first team.
Favre will play better, and he'll throw a lot. He and Brooks will roll up the interceptions, but Chad and TO will bring home the bacon for you.
It's too early to start ripping your team apart. Don't panic. TO is a knucklehead, but you can do better.

Even though Owens is a huge idiot in the locker room, he will score a lot of points and he will rack up a fair amount of yards. T.o has never led the league in receiving yards but he does put up the numbers, Vick on the other hand does not put up huge number for a quarterback, he has great intangibles but he is not that accurate in his passer rating and he won't throw for more then 15-20 touchdowns. He can win games for you but his over-all numbers are not that great.

Keep T.O. and pick up a better secondary QB than Favre in FA. Brooks isn't that great, either, so see who you can use when the Eagles have a bye and consider picking up two QBs.

No, don't make that deal. McNabb will be your every week starter, stay with him and TO. Vick is a godd QB, but not a good fantasy QB.

Allright, check it out:
Mcnabb>Vick So you probably wouldn't have much use for VIck
TO is a top three player at his position..... Vick is subpar at his position.
You can only have one quarterback playing, but you can have several WR's. so, if you made this trade you'd be losing a top three player (at his position) for a guy that wouldn't even bring you points....
Don't do it, seriously.

Give up Terrell (he's not worth an empty juice box) and take Hines with McNabb

well, Drew Bledsoe has to get the ball to T.O. for him to get stats. Can he do that, not likely. Michael Vick is in control of his own stats. He's the true play maker.
