Even though Tony's contract is not yet up, this offseason is somewhat a contract year because of the Chiefs cap situation.
Tony G has a 3.6 million base salary this year. He's an attractive candidate to restructure or do something else like trade.
If he restructures he's going to want top money which means a big bonus. Tony isn't going to want to sign a 2 or 3 year deal. I don't think he is going to want to be in a Ty Law situation where every year you are looking for another deal in another city.
Tony was, and still is, a great TE. But, do you want to tie up so much money in the TE position on the downside of a players career? It's a tough question. If you could get a first round pick for him I think I'd make a trade.

Q: Herm, back on December 25th you were asked if Trent Green was your starter going into next season and you said, ‘yeah, why wouldn’t he be?’ Have you changed your mind on that?
EDWARDS: No, I have not.”
