What about Bob?

About two minutes after I'd been asked a question about whether I thought Gonzalez would be traded, the Chiefs announced that they'd pulled the trigger on a deal to Atlanta.

I blathered on about how conflicted the organization would be about trading Gonzo, because he'll enter the Hall of Fame as a Chief. And while I'm sure there was legitimate consternation about dealing away their best player, the Chiefs couldn't resist Atlanta's offer of a second-round pick in 2010.

Why not the Giants?

Well, consider that GM Jerry Reese was only willing to go as high as a fourth-round pick last October when he spoke about dealing for Gonzo.

The worst part of all this: I'd just sent La Monica a copy of my mock draft (with FINAL ANSWER written at the top). I'd given the Falcons tight end Brandon Pettigrew of the Falcons.

I'll be kind to La Monica (maybe), because I think it's still worthwhile for Atlanta to take a blue chip tight end. After all, Gonzalez might only play another year or two.

Then again, it'd be kinda fun to see La Monica's head explode after he'd have to revise the mock for a fourth time in two days.
