Giants 53-man roster projection: Who’s in, who’s out entering training camp?. The Giants have made an annual tradition of trying — and failing — to fix their offensive line every offseason for the past decade. The latest plan involved signing veterans Jon Runyan and Jermaine Eluemunor to mid-level contracts to solidify the guard spots.
