Eagles Deny Report Permission Given to Sheppard to Seek Trade

Bleeding Green Nation :: Breaking: Lito Sheppard given permission to seek trade (http://www.bleedinggreennation.com/story/2008/2/18/165332/351)

Interesting move. He's still fairly young and pretty talented. Except he can't stay healthy.

For right price, I don't mind trading for him..

so why would we want him? Once again the Redskins creed of giving up too much or paying to much for talent thats over-rated

There was a while there where it looked like Lito Shepphard was going to emerge as one of the NFC's dominant corners but he never took the next step. Still a very good player though.

Interesting that the article hinted the Eagles may be interested in pursuing Samuel, as that is not the type of move they would have typically made a few years ago.

There was never any mention of the Redskins wanting him. What are you talking about?

for the right price i wouldnt mind trading for anyone, but there is never any "right price" so there goes that pipedream

Ya think he might want to play for the Giants?

I doubt the Eagles trade him to anyone in the NFCE unless one of the other teams offers them a deal they can't refuse.

I doubt Lito ends up on any team in the NFC East via trade. I heard the Eagles are interested in Larry Fitzgerald. They would have to throw in a a pick or two to make that happen, but a tandem of Sheppard and Rolle would be very solid, and Arizona would save a lot of money on the deal. Fitzgerald's cap hits are HUGE the next two seasons. About $16M I think. Also, Anquan Boldin, Bryan Johnson, and Leonard Pope are still very good weapons even without Fitzgerald.

You don't trade with a team in your own division.
