What??????? You are saying "WE" need Sheppard and then you say "We need to keep our draft picks". Well, which should it be??? You can't have both!!!!! Unless the Saints can trade for Sheppard without giving up draft picks.
I think he's saying we need to keep our picks to use the on the Lito trade, as opposed to another trade like Shockey. I really wouldn't want to waste high picks on any TE this off season, which is good because we're not going to.
