I don't like Shockey, he can't stay healthy.
That being said, there's no way in hell I'm trading away the future for a guy that has 3 years of productivity left. But then, I'm one of the very few that hated the trade we made to get Montana.

If the trade can enhance your position to win a Superbowl in those three years you do it. The Giants won the SB last year and are having a great year so far. If they think that making a move for a proven TE can ensure that get back then they make the deal. Having TG on the Giants makes them much tougher to beat IMO.

Giants won one without a star TE, and look better this year. You don't trade away the future for a 3 year player, especially a TE.

The Giants have the extra draft choices to do it, so it certainly won't hurt them. Especially if Gonzalez helps them win at least one more Super Bowl (which would seem to be a certainty if he's traded).

Like Milkman said, the Giants won last year with Kevin Boss at TE. They don't NEED Gonzalez to win a SB. |

The Giants would be crazy to give up more than a third for Tony, but if they offered that 2nd and fifthas has been suggested by Glazer, I'd be all over that like a pig on shit.

If the Saints gave up a 2nd & a 5th for an injured Jeremy Shockey (who's nowhere near as talented at Gonzalez), why would they be "crazy"? I don't get that logic at all. |

Tony is a star, no doubt, but that doesn't change the fact that TE is one of the lowest value positions on the football field.
