Stand firm on a third round pick til right before our second round pick. If anything, offer a conditional pick next year also. I would love for a deal like this to happen.

As to the Saints, they can’t trade the same pick twice (duh), so what are they up to? Our guess is that they’re trying to play two NFC East rivals against each other, hoping that one of them takes the Saints’ second-rounder in order to prevent the other from getting it.

Or maybe, as a reader suggested, the Saints are merely the straw man in a three-way trade. Maybe they’ll get Sheppard with that second-round pick and then trade him straight up to the Giants for Shockey....Fond this on PFT...never looked at it like this but maybe this is what is going to happen.
