Tony is worth more than that to the Chiefs. Also once on a different team, a good team, his performance would far exceed that of a third round pick. He still performs at the highest level. As far as Williams is concerned WRs do hold more value then TEs in general, however there is a point where the quality of the players in question make a difference. Tony is a better player then Williams and he will be for a couple more years and maybe longer than that even. A 2nd round pick as compared to what Williams was traded for is plenty of difference in compensation between a great TE and a so so WR with some untapped potential. Well IMO.
