You draft Taylor for three reasons.
1. Bye Week filler, based on match ups, he gets enough touches to warrant a start. 2. MASSIVE upside in the event AP goes down. 3. Trade bait with the guy that owns AP in a two player for one trade.
Infact you have to laugh at anyone that drafted AP and didn't take Taylor.

I wouldn't accept that trade.
But the problem you have is everyone know you're desperate to trade one of them, as such their value isn't actually that high.
If they have say Chris Cooley, Gates or Clarke average what 5 points a game more over the course of the season, who are they willing to give you for such a moderate upgrade?
I actually think Cutler will have an okay year as a QB this year, you could probably pair him with a McNabb or a Kolb or Flacco and ride match ups, but are you willing to give up that much?
If I were you, I'd look to get a BIG upgrade at wide receiver first. I like Ward and Steve Smith, but Robert Meachem is hit or miss for me. I also don't like Mason anymore now there's more options in Baltimore.
Try packaging Gates together with Mason or Meachem and getting a Brandon Marshall (and that team's backup QB) or someone like that.
Sadly by selecting two TEs all the teams know as well as you you can't play them each week so for each week you have both on your bench you're losing points which could have been a Chad 85, Dwayne Bowe or someone like that, that would have been selected in the same spot.
