Jeremy Shockey is a Saint

How do you call this trade good for both teams, but the Taylor trade awful for the Redskins?

Because Shockey is probably going to play at a high level for several more years. He's got a Pro Bowl QB throwing to him and his former O-coordinator who is knows him and knows his game. With the emegence of Boss, NY didn't really need him. Plus NY has Toomer, Plax, Steve Smith, Moss' little brother and they just drafted Mario M. They are pretty solid on offense.

Taylor could potentially play one more year and then go off and and try and make movies...or try and be Mr. Twinkle Toes again. I would bet that if we win 5-7 games he could walk. If that happens then we're right back to square one minus the draft pick, which could be a high 2nd rounder.

I'm going to say this one more time. Sometimes guys get hurt and you don't know what you have in the back-up until he gets in the game and shows what he can do. The Giants saw what Boss can do, he's had a great off season so they let Shockey go. But not before they got some value in return.

I am actually disappointed about this trade. Shockey is usually good for a 15 yard penalty in critical situations.

Just thought Id mention that on March 24th this was posted by me (http://www.thewarpath.net/redskins-locker-room/22980-saints-after-shockey.html). PFT is not always BS. Im glad to see Shockey go, I don't have to listen to the announces talk about him all the time anymore.

You mean i don't ahve to see or listen to that annoying POS anymore? Great day.

???Several more years(???) .....hell I'd be happy with one,at 27 he has'not finished a full season yet! I told all of you this would happen,he's nothing but a jerk ...yes he is most likely one of the top 3 TE's in the league but his route running sucks and he's a freaking head case.Look what he's mad about...the Giants would'nt let him on the sidelines during the super bowl.....No one injured on either team was aloud on the side lines ...he didn't go to the ring cerimony ,or to meet the Prez....good riddens and that should also save us 2 penilties a game.

If it weren't for his mouth, I doubt the Giants would have traded Shockey. Boss is not a replacement for Shockey. Maybe in the future, but not now.

So, the only question is his mouth. Can he keep it shut? Payton knows him better than almost anyone, so you've got to give him the benefit of the doubt.

ummm, how could you have posted this on march 24 when it just happened today?

is it really that important to you that it be known that you were the first person to mention, on this forum, what at that point was nothing more than speculation?

well, fine. CAN WE GET A ROUND OF E-APPLAUSE FOR WARPATH PLEASE?

Not letting him on the side lines was a team decision and if I played for a team and helped them get to the SB I would be ticked if they did that to me.

Thats definitely not what I meant. People on here dog PFT all the time and Im just glad that the post I made about the 'idea' of Shockey going to the Saints became a reality. I could care less about the E-APPLAUSE. Thanks though.

No it was not,not one Giant Player or Patriot player that was hurt was on the sideline.
