No chance. You're talking about arguably the best dual threat back in the league. Top 3 for sure. Give me the guy who's proven over the guy who's hoping to become as good as DJ.
Would you trade David Johnson for Saquon Barkley straight up in a dynasty league setting? Half point per reception.
Obviously, Johnson has proven it, Barkley looks like he has it but hasn't taken a regular season snap yet.
On the other hand, Barkley appears to be in a bit of a better situation (more talent around him, better offensive line), he really appears to be a can't miss, and is several years younger.
What would you do?

No.
You'd be acquiring Barley at his ceiling. In other words, in order for you get even return on value in such a deal Barkley has to be at least ast good as DJ who, as has been said, is a top-3 RB.
