Jeremy Shockey traded to the Saints for Draft Picks.
Shockey has long been an enigma for the New York Giants and I guess that's not their problem anymore. Shockey has been traded to the Saints for a 2nd and 5th round draft pick (2009 and 2010?). This is the same deal that was offered during the summer, but with Jason Taylor off the board, I guess the Giants did what they had to do. Great pickup for the Saints because Shockey can spread the field for their already good receivers and Bush. This gives Brees a great target for those tough 3rd and whatever and Shockey is a decent run blocker, very physical. So now, Shockey just has to pass a physical and hope that he doesn't get hurt this year. Great deal for both sides. The Giants will be using those picks on D line and possibly WR in the next few drafts.
