We are probably looking at a rebuilding period of sorts. Not sure if that involves a complete rehaul of every player on the roster or what, but I'm curious as to what Tamba would fetch us in a trade to set ourselves up better for the future. He's 29 years old right now and is obviously one of the best pass rushers in the league, including being one of the best at forcing fumbles.
So, FF brethren, what would you realistically give up to get him? |
Have you lost it man 
Doesn't rebuilding usually consist of getting rid of older players to obtain more draft picks to fill the various holes and get younger in hopes of competing in the future? We don't have a key player over 30 
Other than QB, there are very few starting spots that need an upgrade and IMO, we won't know for sure how much we need until we get that QB in the lineup and see how both sides of the ball react to playing with and benefiting from a good QB for the very first time.
I don't know exactly what you were thinking, but there shouldn't be any kind of trading good players scenarios until we assess where we are after the 2013 season with our (assumed) rookie QB....cuz if we get the right HC, we might be pretty good.

He's also 29 with a big salary. Still he's the lone bright spot for Kansas City.
I think they are better off keeping him, but If they don't, I can't see anyone giving up more than a late 2nd round pick. |
Yeah he is except for the times when opposing fans are saying it's Charles..or Bowe...or Houston...or DJ...or Flowers.

I never understand people who think that trading away your only good players is the path to rebuilding a good team. What possible good could come out of trading a proven talent for a couple of mid round draft choices? Several mediocre players are not better than one good one.
Not to mention, Tamba Hali just signed a contract last year. |

Tamba Hali won't get traded at all. It's just speculation by some Chiefs fan. |

With that contract? Maybe a third and a conditional sixth rounder.
The age, plus contract, will keep him in town because the return will not be worth it. Without the high 2013 numbers, I could see a low second and a conditional third. Hali is productive but there are many young productive pass rushers who have come to the NFL in the last couple of years to dissuade teams from trading for him.
