    Chiefs | Gonzalez deal in the works?
    Tue, 14 Oct 2008 10:35:33 -0700

    Adam Schefter, of NFL.com, reports the Kansas City Chiefs have postponed their regular press conference Tuesday, Oct. 14, to 4 p.m. EST, perhaps a sign that the team is waiting to see if they can trade TE Tony Gonzalez. The team is fielding offers and asking for second- and fifth-round draft choices in return for Gonzalez. So far, teams are balking.


    Per KFFL.com
    Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

      so no way TT will do it

      he will never give up anything more then a 6th or 7th rounder

      he needs all those picks so he can right them all down on little pieces of paper and spank to them. at least thats my guess
      He'd give up a 5th for Gonzo if that's all it took. I wouldn't give up a day 1 pick either, so if the bidding goes that high then I hope TT does NOT pull the trigger.
      3rd rounder! DO IT! hehe
      No. Day one picks should be used on guys who have yet to reach thier prime, not guys who are well past it.

        why do people get their hopes up?

        TT won't do this, but if he can get him for a 5th, I would try it. TE is a tough position to just pick up a new offense, and I doubt he would be as effective for the Packers. That said, he is a great veteran player who could perhaps learn quickly - but it would still take some time.

          only route he needs is 10 yard curl and a 9 route!

            No way TT does this deal. Now if there is a good DT or DE available . . . A position of far greater need.

                It is not just receiving, he needs to learn the blocking scheme as well.

                    As far as I hear there are, but they play for Detroit right now. Interdivisional trades are very rare mid season. I don't expect to see a Cory Redding or a Dewayne White in a Packers uniform this season.

                          Forget that. I'd rather have a pick used to get someone on our d-line. But I doubt Detriot will trade with us since we are in their division.

                            Keith Jackson helped once upon a time.

                              Once upon a time we had a dominating defense, a great run offense and a good passing offense. KJ really helped the passing offense. The Pack of today has an okay defense, a great passing offense, and a poor running game. Not the same circumstance at all.
