This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Kelce easily. In fact, it's a no-brainer for me.

If you've got to start two TE's weekly, the talent at the position dries up considerably faster than what you can get at WR where you also only need to start two. I'm not a fan of Matthews anyway, and with your starting requirements it should be an instant accept if this was offered to you.

If you're thinking of proposing this trade, be prepared to add to Matthews because I doubt anyone in your league would take that straight-up for a top tier TE.

Easily Kelce in a 2TE league for me.

Would put you in a comfortable position at TE and even if you trade him to a team in need later on, you should get more in return.
