Now What's Lito Worth?

Posted by Derek

So I know some people think the Eagles "always ask for too much in trade," but not dumping Lito for some crappy third-round draft pick is looking pretty good right now, isn't it? 

I mean, Washington gave up a second and a sixth for Jason Taylor, a very fine player who can't wait to stop playing football.  And the news has just broken that the Saints have traded a second and a fifth for Jeremy Shockey.

Now Shockey's not a bad player, but his numbers are really just a half-step better than L.J. Smith's.  Tell me in a league where cornerbacks are considered about twice as valuable as tight ends that Lito Sheppard isn't worth more in a trade.

Also, so long Shockey.  Been nice hating you.
