Giants Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

Giants general manager Jerry Reese has a somewhat skewed view of the final 53-man roster. “I don’t like those formulae that tell you there have to be eight offensive linemen and five wide receivers and so forth,” he says. “I have always felt you have to keep the 53 best players you have, and the rest will sort of take care of itself.”
The subject came up when Reese was questioned about the team’s deep supply of wide receivers, more than enough to go around, probably more than can be kept, and yet some of them far too good to simply cut loose.
“We had that problem last year with the running backs,” he said. “We knew we were going to keep Brandon Jacobs, Derrick Ward and Reuben Droughns.
