I get that you're excited about your team, especially your WR corps. And you should be. Add that to your QB stable in an SF league along with Gurley and Graham, and you have a great starting line-up.
But, I'd pump the brakes quite a bit. Are you THAT sure that your WR corps is top-to-bottom elite? I love AJG (I'm lower on Julio than most), but odds are that both have played their best fantasy football already. Gordon is a wild-card, and DT is an unknown. JuJu looked great; but starting him alongside AB every week isn't ideal (and if and when Big Ben misses some games...). Your depth is entirely speculative.
Don't get me wrong: You have an exceptional WR corps. But, I don't think that trading a top-end WR for a top-end RB solves your roster construction challenge. You'd have even more depth questions at WR and, while you would solidify your starting RB corps, your depth questions at RB would remain.
Essentially, you'd be making a lateral move without knowing whether, by mid-season, you'll be in more need of a WR or a RB.
*Exception: If you can use, say, AJG or Julio to get a guy like Zeke, that's one thing. Or if you're high on, say, Hunt or Gordon, then that's another. But, I would only move one of them for an RB that you are convinced is a bona fide young stud RB.
Another option: Look to trade some of your WR lottery tickets (Parker, Lockett, etc.) for picks in 2019. You can then use those picks in-season for veteran fill-ins if need be.
