Looks like that three way trade rumor with the Giants, Saints and Fins might not have been wrong. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/8364800/Sources:-Giants-to-trade-Shockey-to-Saints?FSO2&ATT=MA
I think it makes the JT trade look even better.. now hopefully the Saints have a far better record than Washington in 2008
to take it further.. it makes JT's trade even better. He's only got one, maybe two years left and still commanded nearly the same value as the amazing jeremy.
The Saints made out like bandits on this one. Shockey has a loudmouth and can never back it up. He had a great season his rookie year and ever since all he's been around the NFL is hype. He'll have a solid game or two in a row for you but for the most part he drops wide open passes on a consistent basis (then gets a 7 yard gain and dances like the team won the Super Bowl) and just flat out easy balls. Hearing that he's a Top 5 TE from people is such a joke. He was the third best TE in his DIVISION.
The Saints needed a tight end very badly, that's why they gave up a lot for an injury-prone child, Schockey.
