We have reached players No. 40-31 in our rankings of the New York Giants’ 90-man roster. We have reached a group of what I believe are ‘likely to make the roster’ players.
Let’s discuss a few of the players in this group.
Yes, I have wide receivers Richie James and C.J. Board making the roster over Darius Slayton — a player we have discussed a lot. Coming off an excellent spring, I feel stronger about James’ chances than Board’s. Why Board over Slayton when Slayton has obviously been more productive as a receiver? Because we are talking about wide receiver five or six on the roster if everyone is healthy and Board is both far less expensive and a far more valuable special teams player than Slayton.
