Broken and on the downside his career. Sixth rounder at best.

Wouldn't want Shockey on my team. I love Canes' guys, but Shockey isn't a winner and he's bad for team chemistry.

I guess the Giants really believe they are better without him. That may come back to haunt them though.

Hooah05! | 04/26/08, 09:24 AM

The Giants are only doing this because Shockey really wants it. If they don't do it, he will be very difficult to deal with. It's a sad situation. I'd like to think that they did all the could to convince him they wanted/needed him. But the damage was done.

Maybe it will be good for him and the Giants. But the Saints are getting a gift.

Never been a fan, acts like a spoiled brat. I do battle with a 14yr old brat everyday. Currently winning

I like shockey and I don't want him to leave ,but apparently he wants to. It's the immature side of him showing again. I also believe that this has everything to do with money. The gnts will not give him a penny more so his chances of better money lie elseware.

I'd rather see him go to the falcons than the saints, that would be a way of sticking it to him for being a d1ck and forcing the gnts hand on a trade. Besides, what are the chances of him ever playing a full season or being as good as he was after a broken leg, especially the first year after ?

They will regret it if they do trade him. They cannot replace him, or what he brings to the offense.

eeerie1 | 04/26/08, 10:37 AM

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! He's a 4 time Pro-bowler.

They're are alot of Shocky haters here, there and everywhere.

Better pick a TE & Jordy Nelson.

With that in mind, I bet you do pretty well in your fantasy league, huh?

Well, his attitude makes it hard to like him sometimes. As a Cowboy fan, I will never say that he isn't a great TE. We've seen him take it to us many a time. But, he is a whiner and his ego is almost as big as TOs. Gots to be a team player. I would have thought that seeing what they did without him this past year would have humbled him some. Guess not.

Hooah05! | 04/26/08, 11:13 AM

Despite the obvious talent and potential to be even better every year, this guy is as much of a negative distraction as anyone else here on fannation that gets skewered in these comments. He is ****. Eli Manning should not have to put up with this loser's presence in the locker room or on his offensive unit. Wise move by the Giants if it happens.

EastCoastKeith | 04/26/08, 11:27 AM

Big Boss Man made the plays after Shockey's injury and in the Super Bowl. Shockey is just another U punk. They aren't all Ed Reed.

The Kirb | 04/26/08, 11:49 AM

my question is ... and I don't believe I've seen a valid answer ... is why does he want out of NY?

jctoo | 04/26/08, 11:51 AM

Probably because he's upset that they won the SB and didn't wait for him.

Hooah05! | 04/26/08, 12:08 PM

He'll bring Super Bowl experience to his new team. Oh wait...he doesn't have any!

Drunk Eli is Gold! | 04/26/08, 12:13 PM

Those Cheaties any good #2?

Beer-n-drums | 04/26/08, 12:31 PM

Shockey isnt going anywhere, sorry haters...

Hail2BigBlue | 04/26/08, 01:31 PM

I've been BEGGING to see Shockey unloaded since the 2002 playoff debacle in San Francisco - unfortunately, he had more trade value then - would've gotten more than a 6th rounder. And of course, the guy can catch and mow people down with the ball, but after watching his attitude on display, I thought the Giants would be better without him. It's taken everyone about 5 yrs to catch up to me - welcome: I've been waiting for you.

6th rounder ??? I guess you dont realize the saints already offered a 2 huh ? and I pretty sure we'd have been so much better off without one of the leauges top TE's the last 5 years right ? Dude, I mean really...get a grip !

Dead Kennedy | 04/26/08, 02:41 PM

Well, Ginatfbl, I guess we really won't know how good we would've been without him, but I know how good we were with him - and I think we'll be even better off without him. So far, I am right and you are wrong. Make sense to you? And where you are right, indeed, I haven't ingested all of the speculation on what the Saints have offered for him, but my point - which you missed - was that they would've gotten more for him 6yrs ago than they will today.
