the unfermentables in the caramel malts are going to stay the same either way. But yes, I would mash lower, like 148 or so if you have a lot of caramel. Depends on what you are going for though.

aka 1 pound total of caramel malt
1 pound of crystal malt isn't "a lot" at all. That's only about 8%.
I'd mash most beers at 152-153.
