Shockey to Saints deal dead??

Remember to check out our homepage my team rivals as well as our Mets and Yankees coverage!

The general manager of the New Orleans Saints said in an interview last night that the Saints are out of the running for New York Giants start tight end Jereme Shockey. He claimed the Giants asking price was too high.

Could he be trying bait Giants GM Jerry Reese into lowering the price for Shockey? Probably, however I feel Reese will stick to his guns and Shockey will be catching passes from Eli Manning in 2008.
