By Mike Garafolo/The Star-Ledger

April 27, 2009, 12:15AM
This list will grow over the next couple of days. And then, it could shorten by a few names because inevitably some guys fail physicals while others who reportedly have signed actually have not. But we do have a few names as to whom the Giants have signed - or soon will sign - as undrafted free agents. I... Full story »

By Bridget Wentworth/The Star-Ledger

April 26, 2009, 10:31PM
On the second day of the draft, the Giants got their big-bodied receiver. And no, once again and for the last time (maybe), it was not Braylon Edwards.

By Jenny Vrentas/The Star-Ledger
