Saints offered Giants 2nd and Roman Harper for Shockey

Once again, there is a report stating the Saints are trying to trade for Giants TE Jeremy Shockey.

This time, it's SI's Peter King, who wrote today:

9. I think, Giant beat writers, you might sniff around this one: New Orleans is not through trying to acquire Jeremy Shockey.

When PK says, "Jump," I say, "How high?" (Even though my agent told me to wait for my pro day.)

I did some sniffing around and came up with very little. Not saying nothing's cooking, just that there aren't signs of it. All I know is what I heard recently - that the Saints' original offer was a second-round pick (No. 40 overall, if it was this year's pick they offered) and S Roman Harper, their second round pick in '06. The Giants said, "Nah."

So unless NO is reloading for another run at Shockey, nothing's cooking on that front. And believe me, if they plan on prying Shockey from the Giants, they'd better come with a seriously good offer.
