The article says:

A source familiar with negotiations told the Journal Sentinel that Chiefs President Carl Peterson ultimately decided to retain Gonzalez after turning down the best offer from Green Bay, which was a third-round selection. The source said Peterson wanted a second-rounder to make the deal.

There is no indication whatsoever that the Pack even considered that 2nd rounder.

His market value was set.

Third round.

Third round.

From the article:

"The decision by general manager Ted Thompson not to send the second-round pick to Kansas City was made just minutes before the National Football League trading deadline of 3 p.m. "

Sometimes a market won't bare what something is worth. In a case like that you don't sell. Tony is worth more to the Chiefs than what the market would bare so he's still a Chief. Also willliams isn't even in the same galaxy as Jerry Rice and Tony.
