No shock here: Saints back off

New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis admitted Thursday he's no longer in pursuit of a deal for Giants tight end Jeremy Shockey, citing the Giants' trade demands. Prior to the draft, the Giants reportedly had asked for a second-round pick and safety Roman Harper.

“It’s no secret we had some discussions with them and we just couldn’t come to a conclusion on the right compensation,” Loomis told Sirius NFL Radio. “I understand that. He's a very good player and the Giants don't want to just give him away - unless they feel like they're getting really good value.
“But for the most part that’s dead ... I don't anticipate that being rekindled.”

The Giants, meanwhile, huddled with free agent defensive end Renaldo Wynn on Wednesday. A source said the veteran, who played with the Saints last season, had a "good visit," but no deal was reached. Wynn played for coach Tom Coughlin while they were with the Jacksonville Jaguars from 1997-2001.

I was going to post this same thing when I wole up today. I'm glad to see we aren't giving anything up for a guy who plays almost as many games a year as I do. If they cut him bring him on, but since that isn't happening we can stick it out a year with Miller and Johnson.
