Giants Trading Shockey!!!!!

SkinFan26 · 07-21-2008, 02:28 PM

The New York Giants and New Orleans Saints have agreed in principle to a trade that will send tight end Jeremy Shockey to New Orleans for second and fifth-round picks in 2009, NFL Network's Adam Schefter reports.
The veteran tight end has played his entire six-year career with the Giants, earning four trips to the Pro Bowl.
Shockey spent the entire offseason rumored to be moving and reportedly clashed with the team over his role in the offense.
Shockey broke his leg in Week 15 last season and missed the Giants' postseason run that ended with a win over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII.

So true, but Roy Wiliams is`nt much of a coverage safety.

I think Skockey has become the most "underrated" overrated player in the league.

Anxious to see how he does with the Saints.

Giants had to trade him. They don't need an unhappy player.

Unless they're lying, his teammates really liked him with all his faults.

I think he's what you could call a swing man... If he's happy and all is well in his life, he'll swing momentum and energy to your team. If he's not, then he'd be like Chad or T.O. or K2 or any of these guys...

Everybody liked Chad, maybe they still do, but I doubt that they look at him the same way now that his antics have effected the team this much...
