ESPN just reported on Sportscenter that TG is traded to ATL for a 2010 2nd Rounder. Im sad.

sad to see him go, Pioli will have to make that pick worth while

That's my feeling too. I'm not only sad to see TG go but also upset that a 2nd round pick NEXT year is what we got for him. Falcons got the better deal here.

We will see. Depends on who that 2010 2nd rounder turns out to be.

The Falcons will be a playoff team again for sure with this high-powered offense. Sounds like some sour grapes. I don't blame you because this was highway robbery. Atlanta fans are rejoicing for getting the top TE in the NFL and not even having to give up any draft picks this year or a first rounder next year.

Check back in 8 months and we'll who was right.

Finally someone else gets it. Their defense may be more depleted than ours.

Too bad... sad to see him go but I have to wonder if this is someplace he would have rather been. Atlanta's not much better than KC in my opinion. A change of attitude is what needed to take place and it would seem our star is on the rise.

We have a top of the line stadium up-coming, great management, a youthful but talent-laden team. And who's to say that ATL can repeat last yrs success, that division is topsy-turvy year in year out.

Best wishes for TG but I don't see a superbowl. Just my OP tho'.

While the Falcons dfense isn't the best in the league or anything, it isn't even the worst in their division. They have legitimate playmakers in Abraham, Peterson, and Lofton. They have young guys with promise in Anderson and Houston. And they have the chance to upgrade their other slots in the draft. Their personnel vastly outstrips ours.
