The Giants continue to change their roster like I change my socks. Here is the latest 53 man Giants roster. A major takeaway is only 10 drafted players remain from incompetent former General Manger Jerry Reese. Needless to say, the cupboard is bare of young talent on this Giants team.
Getting back to Reese on his shaky drafting, let us look at how many players remain from Reese’s crappy drafts:
2007: Zak Deossie
2008: No players
2009: No players
2010- No players
2011- No players
2012- No players
2013- No players
2014- OBJ!
2015- Ereck Flowers & Landon Collins.
2016- Eli Apple, Sterling Shepard, and BJ Goodson
2017- Evan Engram, Dalvin Tomlinson, Wayne Gallman
Giants GM Dave Gettleman and head coach Pat Shurmur are excising players Reese drafted. This is a total makeover of this deplorable roster put together by Reese. Going forward, the Giants will have quality players who are proud to wear the Giants uniform.
Other Observations:
Davis Webb was the biggest surprise cut. However, if you follow the New York Giants Underground and Tony the Prophet one should not be stunned.

Like offensive linemen, the Giants are collecting questionable quarterbacks. The latest is their 3rd round draft choice, Davis Webb. Since Eli Manning was drafted in 2004, the Giants have attempted to pick a quality backup. In 2008, it was Andre Woodson; in 2009 it was Rhett Bomar, and in 2013, it was Ryan Nassib. The common denominator with all three guys is they busted. Webb will, too. Mark it down.
As I tweeted when the news broke about Webb, this is my take:
If u believe Shurmur is a QB guru, u have to honor his decision to cut Webb. #NYG

This is head coach Pat Shurmur on releasing Davis Webb: Shurmur insisted the Giants “do” have a plan for life after Manning, “it’s just not what everybody outside our building had predicted the plan was.”
According to NFL Network, the Giants will bring in veteran journeyman quarterback Matt McGloin for a workout. So the Giants will continue to tweak their roster to get the best 53 players on the field as their season opens on September 9th.
