Saints After Shockey?!

Shockey is a tool, but is also a very good TE, both as a reciever and blocker.

Based solely on football ability, I think the Giant's would be making a mistake going w/Kevin Boss as their starter. Sure he had some good games in their run to the super bowl and he might be a solid nfl player for years to come, but he's not going to make the plays Shockey does. I think Boss' success was just another part of a great run by the g-men. They will have a really tough time getting to .500 in 08 IMO. There's no way they can win like that again.

On the other hand, if Shockey is a problem on the team & not good for team chemistry, their success last year w/out him might not have been coincidental.
