Saints dealing for Shockey

SAINTS OFFER TWO PICKS FOR SHOCKEY

We’re hoping that the Saints and the Giants work out a trade for tight end Jeremy Shockey, because the story is entering the realm of the Brett Favre retirement/unretirement watch.

 

Though it has been believed that the Saints offered only a second-round pick for Shockey, Jay Glazer of FOXSports.com reports that the Saints have added to the offer a sixth-round pick in 2008 or a fifth-rounder in 2009.

 

The Giants previously asked for the second-rounder and safety Roman Harper.

 

But the Saints and their second-round pick have also been linked to the Eagles and Lito Sheppard.

 

Shockey is signed through 2011. He’s due to earn a base salary of $1.92 million in 2008. His salary spikes to $3.0 million in 2009, and $3.8 million in 2010.

I think Shockey would be an excellent addition to the Saints. Off field issues aside, it's hard to argue against his talent. Heck I would love to see him in a Bills uni...

 

but that would be a good move for the saints....imo..
