Sad thing about trading Tony is, even if we get a 1st rounder, it won't be a high pick. Any team that can give us a pick high enough in the first to be worth it IMO isn't going to make it to the playoffs this year anyway which means Tony won't go for the trade.

If I was Tony, I would go straight to Clark and explain his situation then ask for a trade and bypassing the King Carl BS.

My heart agrees with you, but my head says there are other HOFers who retired without a ring. Guys like Dan Marino. Tony's value to this team and Croyle (assuming he lasts the rest of the season) is immeasurable.

He'll go into the Hall as a Chief. At least I'd hope...not doing this would be completely goofed up.

Yeah ... I know, Mr. DeezNutz. It's silly to feel the way I do and I know it.

Still, I'd much rather that Gonzo spend his entire career as a Chief ... which he would have been able to do had it not been for our front office.

The thing is, though, if Gonzo wants out and another team offers significant value and Carl doesn't trade him, he's going to be pissed off as all get out and then some, Mr. Frankie. That doesn't do the team much good.

If division rivals Eagles and Giants both have a hard on for him, why not a 1?

I don't disagree with the sentiment that you've expressed. Gonzo is still a very productive player, and, if we were fans of a competently run franchise, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Who in the hell will catch passes for this team?

Jamaal Charles?

Just call him the next Kimble Anders.

Carl would do something dumb like trade Tony for a sack of footballs and a couple Jock straps or something like that

I haven't read the whole thread. Heard a bit on 610 during my lunch break today (they never gave a source)... and there was no mention of it on 810.

Is there anything to indicate that there's any truth to this?

There's definitely substance to the report.

Dumbasses
 
Anyone that even remotely wants to trade Tony Gonzalez is a dumbass. He is the face of the franchise and the best home-grown player since DT. There are some things you never do, and trading the best Chiefs player in the last 15 years is one of them. Trade away LJ. He is a bitch. Tony is a pro's pro.

Edit: If he requests a trade, then by all means try and get it done.
