..let's hope somebody steps up to the plate for Shockey.
Hopefully in Cleveland or to the Titans or some team far far away from our division.
I am surprised though that they would actually consider letting him go. Love him or not, he's an immediate concern to any defense when he's on the field and opens up other WRs to get open because of the coverages he receives.
Not to mention the balls he catches on 3rd down and the redzone.
Maybe this is just a stick in his eye to get his attention to get his behavior in order.
I don't think any of this is serious unless some team is looking at TE as a high draft priority and they think they have a team already in place to challenge.
His salary has to be a chunk of change at this point to do a trade, sort of like we are dealing with in RW.
Hmm..hope it happens though.
But what are the Jints thinking here..? I realize they won the SB and they have decided Coughlin is their coach for the next 4 years (right, not), but I don't think you start dismantling a team that has taken 5 years to build and to wait out Manning's maturity.
It never was Shockey holding this team back. It was usually the over throws and INTs. the QB threw at crucial times that did them in. And it sure wasn't Tiki, either.
I'm a little baffled. I still can't believe we didn't beat them in the playoffs. Shockey or no Shockey, Tiki or no Tiki. Imagine, both those guys have been stakes in our hearts over the years and with them not playing, we still lost.
I still don't understand that, really.
Hmmm..
