If I'm the GM of a team attempting to trade for Tony, I'd offer a 4th.

You'd hope they would compromise and settle on a 3rd, but as the GM of another team, that's is the best offer you'd ever get.
The flaw in this reasoning is that the Giants just traded Shockey away for a 2nd and a 5th. I'd say GMs have a pretty good idea about the value of the Tight End position the way it's been played since Tony got here.
