Giants go crazy on waiver wire after roster purge

The Giants on Sunday discarded six players who were with them throughout the spring and summer and, in some cases, for a season, or multiple seasons. As replacements, the Giants picked up six players who have never before worn their uniform, do not know their offensive and defensive systems and who move immediately to the 53-man roster only one week before the regular-season opener against the Jaguars.

Meaning? Man oh man, the coaching staff and front office were not thrilled with the talent they had to work with throughout training camp and the preseason.

As a fix, the Giants went wild when NFL waivers began.
