They can still trade him anytime later. It doesn't have to be during the draft. I'd be surprised if he's still wearing a Giants uniform come opening day.

For those of you pissed at Reese and the New York Football Giants; a little vindication:

ESPN (John Clayton) Names among its Draft Losers...

Losers

4. New York Giants: This may sound strange to list the Giants because they went 8-for-8 in the draft last year and got the player they wanted in the first round: safety Kenny Phillips. But they got greedy on a proposed Jeremy Shockey trade. Saints coach Sean Payton wanted to give them a second-round pick. The Giants wanted more, so there won't be a Shockey trade. The Giants had five second-round options at tight end, but they took cornerback Terrell Thomas. Sure, those tight end options wouldn't have been as good as Shockey, but he's clearly not a happy player. They should have made the trade.

Clayton must be on our side on this one...

I don't know if I'd put him on our side. As I stated before the Saints made a fair offer for Shockey considering him returning from injury and the status of the trading market between current players and draft picks.

Giants got greedy and it has a very good chance of burning them in the future.

Jeremy Shockey, Osi Umenyiora and Michael Strahan were among the Giants who didn’t show up to the White House.
