The Giants, after much maneuvering, are what we thought they were.
The machinations that finally resulted in a finished 53-man roster did nothing to alter what this mystery team will look like Sunday, when it takes the field to face the powerhouse (at least on defense) Jaguars in a rare regular-season opener at home. The last time the Giants did not have to travel to start their season was in 2012 — back when Saquon Barkley was running for Whitehall High in Coplay, Pa.; Pat Shurmur was entering his second (and last) year as Browns head coach; and Eli Manning was a mere 31 years old.
