The New York Giants spent a shipload of cash this offseason in an effort to rebuild a limp defense and mask the faults of four straight playoff-less seasons.

Eli Manning was asked Wednesday at a football camp at Kean University in New Jersey if he believes Big Blue is a playoff team in 2016. Instead of dodging the question or giving a roundabout response, Manning answered bluntly.

"Yeah, definitely," he said, via the New York Post. "We added some great players in the offseason. We were aggressive in free agency, but still have a lot of our core guys, especially on offense, back and I think we made some good moves on defense.
