That being said, if we can get the 55th pick in the draft for Tony, we have to do it. We have so many needs at vital positions (3-4 DEs, NT, OLB, FS, RG, RT), and this pick could fill one of them. To have a great TE is a good thing, but we aren't going to win games without a real RT or DE.
If we do make the trade, it might make everyone feel better to look at it like we traded Tony G. and the 34th pick for Cassel/Vrabel and the 55th pick. And that we got Tony a legitimate chance at a ring on an up-and-coming young team in a very weak NFC.
