Shockey traded to the Saints

http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/8364800?MSNHPHMA

Sources: Giants to trade Shockey to Saints

The Giants have agreed to trade their disgruntled tight end to the New Orleans Saints for a second-round pick and a fifth-round pick, FOXSports.com has learned. The deal is pending league approval, according to a league source. Shockey must also pass a physical.

The compensation is the same the Saints offered New York back in April prior and during to the draft ... and it was turned down.

The move comes one day after Jason Taylor was traded from Miami to New York's NFC East rivals in Washington. According to a report on SI.com, the Giants had held discussions about a three-team trade in which they would have ended up with Taylor, the Saints would have landed Shockey and the Dolphins would have received a pair of draft picks.

The emergence of rookie Kevin Boss during the Giants' improbable Super Bowl run — a stretch Shockey missed due to a broken leg — made Shockey expendable. Boss started six games after Shockey's injury (two regular season and all four during the Giants' postseason run), making nine catches for 140 yards and a TD.


Shockey's attitude made the move somewhat necessary as the Giants sought to avoid distractions from their bid to repeat as Super Bowl champions.

During the team's recent minicamp, Shockey reportedly engaged in a shouting match with GM Jerry Reese, just the latest controversy involving the outspoken former first-round pick out of the University of Miami.

Shockey's absence in Phoenix during the Super Bowl was conspicuous to say the least. According to some reports, one of the many sources of Shockey's displeasure with the team was that he was not allowed to stand on the team's sidelines during the game.

In the past, Shockey also had less-than-complimentary things to say about his quarterback, Eli Manning. In fact, many have theorized that Manning's transformation from a middle-of-the-pack quarterback to a Super Bowl MVP was facilitated by Shockey's absence.

It would be if their WRs opposite of Colston would step up.

I'm a tad confused about this whole disgruntled thing. Apparently, in their natural state, a person is supposed to be gruntled. If so, I'm sorry that Shockey lost his gruntle. Still, they should have plenty of gruntle in New Orleans which means he might get his gruntle back pretty quickly.

This should open up a lot of passing lanes for those other WR's.

I can see this offense being very powerful in the coming season... They have a coach that believes in scoring TD's over FG's.

In my own personal experiences, I have found that traveling to New Orleans does much to restore one's gruntle, so I think your theory is correct.

Too bad they are basically the KC Chiefs 2002-2005.

Maybe they will get tougher on D. Who knows?

Remember when people would argue that he was good enough and we didn't need a #1?

How funny that was.
