Carson also scares me due to injury risk. Every week I basically need a fall back option because he is often a game-time decision. Plus with Seattle's now pass-first offense, his ceiling is capped from prior years even if he pass catching helps his floor more than in past years.

Hey, I'm gonna ride the hot hand and right now, that is Herbert.

Carson scares you due to injury, so you're gonna trade him for a RB (Drake) that got carted off the field last week and who knows when he will be back? That doesn't really make much sense to me. At least Carson has a chance to play. Drake is out for a while.

Drake is really the throw in. I'm more betting on Thomas coming back in Week 9 and resembling a top 5 WR.

Carson is also technically injured, and he has known history of fighting through it for 1 quarter and then sitting on the sideline.

I get riding the hot hand with Herbert. I just know the cliff is coming eventually. 

I know your argument is the "safest". It just seems short lived to me.
