tazinib1 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Profootballtalk.com has learned that an "effort is afoot" in Kansas City to trade Tony Gonzalez. http://www.profootballtalk.com/2008/10/10/...alez-to-giants/ Giants make sense, but personally, I'd love to see him go to the Jets.

i_am_the_swammi Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Eagles franchised LJ for this year, and will let him walk next year....be nice to have Gonzo in the mix for a couple years while hthey draft the TE of the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suture Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I would love this as I have Gonzo on my team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazinib1 Posted October 11, 2008 Author Share Posted October 11, 2008 (edited) Taz what TV show did you do and when is it on? Season 2 of "Faithful Friends" on Animal Planet. I don't think it airs until Jan/Feb but it could be running re-runs of Season 1 in syndication. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/general.cfm?gid=678 Edited October 11, 2008 by tazinib1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratesownninjas Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 The Giants, Bills, and Cardinals all make sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle2003 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I didn't even think of the Cards, but he would be a BEAST in that offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaP'N GRuNGe Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 He could follow in the tradition of Chiefs heading to Minnesota...Tony Richardson (gone)...Jared Allen...Gonzo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azazello1313 Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 He could follow in the tradition of Chiefs heading to Minnesota...Tony Richardson (gone)...Jared Allen...Gonzo... I think the idea is to trade him to a contender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaP'N GRuNGe Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I think the idea is to trade him to a contender. The Vikings are 1 game out of first place in the North. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muck Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Who's the best team? Anyone with a probable pick in the first half of the draft. ...but Tony probably would 86 a trade like that as he knows he doesn't have many years left to get a SB ring... Winning teams (or very good teams off to a bad start) in need of another target in the passing game ... off the top of my head (and in alpha order): Arizona (Boldin's injury lingering?) Carolina Denver Minnesota (would the newly acquired Jared Allen be able to help broker a deal?) New England New York Jets New York Giants Philadephia Pittsburgh San Diego (paired w/ Gates?!) Seattle Tennessee Washington Which of these teams has extra picks and/or has already traded certain picks away? PHI will have CARs first round pick NE will have SDs second rounder MIA will have WASs second rounder NYG will have NORs second rounder DAL will have CLEs third rounder DAL will have DETs fourth rounder NYG will have WASs fourth rounder ATL will have OAKs fifth rounder PHI will have CLEs fifth rounder NYG will have NORs fifth rounder DAL will have MIAs sixth rounder PHI will have MINs sixth rounder GB will have NORs sixth rounder TEN will have DALs sixth rounder TB will have JAXs seventh rounder MIN will have WASs seventh rounder MIA will have CLEs seventh rounder MIA will have CARs seventh rounder PIT will have TBs seventh rounder ....conditional picks... NYJ may have pick(s) from DEN due to Dewayne Robertson trade IND may have pick(s) from PHI due to Luke Lawton trade DEN will have at least a 7th round pick from ATL due to Dominique Foxworth trade GB will have at least a 4th round pick from NYJ due to Brett Favre trade NYJ may have a 2nd round pick from NOR due to Jonathan Vilma trade ...soooooo.... It appears that the following teams will have some extra 'mustard' to go for Tony Gonzalez... New England New York Giants Philadephia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avernus Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Good info Muck. +1 hopefully Eagles consider trading for him....he would be an upgrade to the offense in every way, including his blocking skills... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budlitebrad Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 (edited) Looks like the Giants so far and maybe the Packers and Bills according to the KC Star, but probably just speculation. The Chiefs were asking for a third-round pick, and the Giants offered a sixth-rounder. Green Bay and Buffalo are other teams that may be interested in Gonzalez.

Dr. Rock Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 NYG will have NORs second rounder Which would be really interesting if they used it on Gonzalez, since they got that pick for Shockey. Shockey for Gonzalez straight up, as it were? Yes please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fingfootball Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 As a Chiefs fan this is almost to sad for words. On the other hand Tony Gonzales is a total class act and should not have to suffer because Carl Peterson. I hope Carl does the right thing and trades Tony to a team that can let him enjoy a playoff win for the first time in his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Cid Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Clearly Gonzo is icing for a Giants team that is doing very well currently. I don't know if I like the move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robash Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 (edited) MFL had a blurb were the Giants offered a 6th...which im not sure id offer anything higher than a late 4th/5th rounder for a player your potentially renting for 10 games. Gonzo is greatl...but so is Boss in this giants system. All this talk on how the TE is a horrible position for the Giants is rediculous...Boss has done everything they have asked them to do. I am not so sure Gonzo puts up stellar numbers in new york., cant see them them messing with an offensive gameplan thats working to accomodate one rentastar Edited October 12, 2008 by Robash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Carl does the right thing and trades Tony to a team that can let him enjoy a playoff win for the first time in his career. Carl is such a dick he'd probably trade him to the Lions. (with all due respect to Lions fans. that sentence was to emphasize the dickness of Carl, not the incompetence of the Lions) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_am_the_swammi Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Per Fanball, something is in the works...teh Chiefs have postponed their news conference until 4:00 in hopes of completeing a deal...no word if anything is imminent. Gonzo on the move? Tuesday 10/14, 12:05 PM CT The Chiefs have postponed their regular Tuesday news conference until 4 p.m. Eastern Time, which NFL.com believes is an indication that Tony Gonzalez could be traded. Our View: The Chiefs are fielding offers and asking for second- and fifth-round picks in return. It is the price that was paid for tight end Jeremy Shockey and defensive end Jason Taylor, and the Chiefs believe Gonzalez is worth as much as those recently traded stars.
