Right now, the Chiefs are still on a Championship run. Now is not the time to be getting rid of our weapons.
After next year, this could change. I too believe that Tony has several good years left in him. Regardless, no one wil trade for him if he only has one year left on his contract. Carl is doing the exact right thing by renegotiating a long term deal. This keeps all of our options open after we make another run this year.

Wrong. It's easier to trade a player with one year left in their contract. It's much tougher to trade a guy like say, Culpepper, because he's owed 100 friggin' million dollars. No one is going to take on that, and if they do, the Vikings won't get shit in return other than cap relief.
The most we'd get for Tony G would be a second rounder...and that's not a bash to Tony G, either.
