Looking to upgrade DEF thru trade or waiver, NEED HELP

I have two problems with my team right now, my DEF isn't that great, and I need more WR depth. Here's my roster (12 team league): QB - Aaron Rodgers WR - Reggie Wayne WR - Ochocinco WR - Patrick Crayton RB - Frank Gore RB - Derrick Ward TE - Jeremy Shockey W/R - Cedric Benson K - Neil Rackers D - NE BN - Shonn Greene BN - Ray Rice BN - Willis McGahee BN - Donnie Avery BN - Brett Favre BN - Fred Taylor And the other issue, silly as it might sound, is that I really don't like rooting for NE. So here are my options: 1. Drop NE and pick up WASH instead (they face the Rams this week) 2. Trade NE D and a good RB (McGahee or Ward) for TEN D and Burleson What makes sense to you guys? I feel like giving up a good RB might be unwise, even tho I have a surplus. Other DEFs that are available on the waiver are: Miami, Atlanta, Arizon, Seatle, SF, Buffalo, Carolina. Thanks for reading/helping.

Good advice. Thanks. Which match up do you like?

Wash vs St. Louis
NO @ Philly (no McNabb)
Oak @ KC
Atl vs Car

I think I'm leaning towards Wash.

Washington's defense looks good. They played well against the Giants. They will crush the Rams.

Oh man. I just picked them up and then looked at the rest of their schedule. How awesome is this?

Rams
Lions
Bucs
Panthers
Chiefs

That's a 5 week stretch I can live with.
