Trade Up in the First Round

Hey Experts,

This is being offered to me in my Standard 12 Team Yahoo league. 

My First Rounder (9th pick) and 2nd Rounder for his First Rounder (5th pick) and 4th Rounder.

So essentially he is selling me Stanton/Goldie , im inclined to take this deal just because my 2nd round target are either too early or gone when its my turn.

Is it a good enough deal to do, to get Stanton and Goldie's stability. It may also be Cabrera or Kershaw, who knows?

You should be able to get more value out of the #9 and the #16 picks than the #5 and #44 picks. Is that the deal?  I'm not sure how you end up with Stanton/Goldschmidt so I must have missed something.

Keep your 1st and 2nd.

If you look at the average Value of players around those picks, you'd be trading a total of about 1.5 in value for 1.3.
