Chiefs Tony Gonzalez Trade Talks? - Page 30

Micjones · 10-10-2008, 02:21 PM

I just stepped out to lunch and heard a 610 report that the trade talks for Tony Gonzalez are pretty serious. It was said that he could be moved to New York as early as today?

Does anyone have more information about this?
I was only in the car a short time.

Kind of how I feel about it. When I first heard I actually thought we might be able to get a first or second round pick -- I mean say what you want about his age he's still way productive. I know a first is dreaming but a third (or less)? C'mon...

Yet the Chiefs start the negotiations asking for a 3rd.

Lunacy!

Amazing how people can just pick out certain words. What I said was:

Key words – “so far on his way”.

Lets compare sack stats through 4 years:
Kevin Greene: 46.5 (0* records not kept, 7, 6.5, 16.5, 16.5)
Bruce Smith: 44.5 (6.5, 15, 12, 11)
JA: 43 sacks (9, 11, 7.5, 15.5)
John Abraham: 33.5 (4.5, 13, 10, 6)
Michael Strahan: 31 (4.5, 7.5, 5, 14 - *excludes 1st season, 1 sack in 9 games)

I'd think this would be a decent fit for him.

The JETS would be a decent fit, except don't they have a very suspect O-Line and they aren't a true SB contender; good offensive fit though.

Basileus777 · 10-13-2008, 01:42 PM

The Jets just spent a first round pick on a TE, I doubt they would give up anything of value for Gonzo.

The vikings would be smart to bring in gonzo

Yeah after we got them bad for JA who isn't doing much....

I have my doubts they would seriously look.... the prospect of a better overall pick for us would be good.

BigChiefFan · 10-13-2008, 01:52 PM

How about the Cowboys? The must be in desperation mode? Double TE sets with Gonzo and Witten.

I'm getting sick of idiots(sorry Frankie) saying this is stupid. If CP would have asked for a 1 or 2, all 31 other teams would have laughed in his face. 3rd, not so bad. People start to think, it brings out only the serious shoppers. While haggling, they get used to and even start to like the idea of TG in their uniform. Another team out bids them, and they say, "If we had him, we might actually have a chance THIS YEAR, if not, surely next year."

The bidding war that ensues drives up the cost.

Let's recap.

Giants low ball the offer, typical, I do it too. Then someone comes in and says, yanno a 3rd ain't bad. Then another team comes and says, a 3rd and a 6th. Finally, maybe someone offers you a second for a guy who at most has 4 900-1000 yd. seasons left in him.

I think CP has done well.

Chiefs fans reading about the team asking for a third rounder and "the Chiefs started negotiations by asking for a third rounder" are two completely different things.

Michael Smith at ESPN, among others, have said the Chiefs initially asked for higher than a 3rd rounder.
