Tony

Which teams would be interested in Tony G?
i would love for the Falcons to look at him

bored of education · 03-25-2009, 12:45 PM

It will cost a team at least a 2nd, I am guessing. KC doesn't want to trade but it would have to be a sexy offer.

Bigburt63 · 03-25-2009, 12:52 PM

Before the Pats signed Chris Baker I would have said they would be interested, but we already have 3 TE's on the roster, and could use the draft picks.

Saints-Tigers · 03-25-2009, 02:35 PM

I would hate for the Falcons to get him. Crumpler hused to pwn our asses, I'd rather not go through that again.

BmoreBlackByrdz · 03-25-2009, 02:37 PM

I doubt KC is gonna let him go, Cassel needs every weapon he can get.

I ******* approve of this thread.

This thread has about as much potential as Alonzo Mourning.

I really don't see the Chiefs trading Gonzo his value to the Chiefs is more then his trade value.

Bo Scaife and a 3rd?

vidae · 03-25-2009, 06:11 PM

Why would we want Bo Scaife? Give me a break.

aNYtitan · 03-25-2009, 06:21 PM

What about the Eagles, give McNabb someone to throw to

Well, I dunno, trade away a TE, get another one (somewhat NFL proven) plus a DP in return?

It's not like they'd be trading Tony away out of luxury of the position being plentiful in depth, I'm sure they'd happily keep him, but if he's going to force the issue then getting some form of a replacement is probably going to be needed one way or another.

In reality, would you want a pass catching tight end who is 33 years old, and would bolt the instant his contract is up, or a second round pick that can be used on a WR in this WR deep draft, a go to target to go along with Dwayne Bowe. Also, wouldn't a strong running game (ie. Larry Johnson) be more beneficial to the growth of Cassel as a QB. Would you not want to trade him as well, even though he has been an injury concern over the past 2 seasons?

I know what I'll get with Gonzo and thats everything the man has his age does not doesn't scare me at all I could argue he just got done playing his best season ever.

A second round pick is just a ??? yes we could nail it but he could also bust I would rather have the sure thing even if it's only for a few more years.

I do agree a strong running game would be great for Cassel but I disagree that it would be more beneficial then having Gonzo as a security blanket.

As for LJ I'm on the trade him bandwagon I would even rather just cut him then have him back even if Gonzo doesn't want to be here I have no fear of him laying down I can't say the same about LJ.

vidae · 03-25-2009, 09:03 PM

LJ and Tony are two VERY different stories as far as how they're shaping our organization.

LJ doesn't try. He doesn't prepare. He's out drinking until 2-3am on saturday nights before a game. He doesn't care.

Tony is always prepared. You know what you get with him. He takes care of himself and he isn't a problem off the field.

I'm also on the trade LJ bandwagon. I'm tired of watching him not give a crap about this team. I want to keep Tony because he's exactly the kind of player you think about when you talk about "veteran leadership."

Don't be shocked to see Buffalo offer their 2nd round pick for Tony Gonzalez. I really think this can happen if they do trade Jason Peters for the later of the Eagles 1st round picks.

Buffalo's line was jsut as good without Peters last year. Would Buffalo do something along these lines? I think so.

Addict · 03-26-2009, 10:05 AM

I see your Tony G, and I raise you a

Whistler6 · 03-26-2009, 02:13 PM

Espn's Insider rumor report has Green Bay on the list, but that's all I could find. I'd like Tony G to Green Bay very much. respect, safe (Ali G).

Well if they are thinking about trading him, Green Bay is definitely a possibility. We almost got him before the trade deadline, but the Chiefs pulled out at the last minute.

vikes_28 · 03-26-2009, 03:14 PM

I waS just going to say that he would go to Green Bay. He would be a good fit there.

AJHawk50 · 03-26-2009, 03:23 PM

As a Chiefs and Packers fan, I can definitely see him fitting in Green Bay. However, I don't know that the Chiefs want to let him go with what they are placing together.

Burger · 03-26-2009, 10:06 PM

Tony would help Jermichael Develop alot.
