Giants Training Camp Notebook is a cliff notes style post aimed at giving Giants fans up-to-date news about the most recent training camp practices.- Quarterback Eli Manning had another brilliant practice with the exception of one errant pass. He has really turned it on of late and has been demonstrating the leadership that so many claim he needed to.
- Although the Giants have given defensive tackle Manuel Wright a surprise opportunity, they aren't taken any chances with him. It's been made clear by Giants brass that they have high expectation and if Manny doesn't give the effort, he will be sent packing.
- David Diehl got beat by defensive tackle Barry Cofield for a sack today. I think Diehl has now been beaten by every single Giants defensive lineman. Well, that may be a stretch, but he has not been very impressive to date.
- Ralph Vacchiano laid out a subtle hint that wide receiver Plaxico Burress may not be ready by opening night. He missed practice again tonight, making it two straight weeks. People are finally starting to take note of his extended absence and although Vacchiano claims it's not time to panic, I think we're approaching that button.
Rapid Fire:
- The Giants cut Dek Bak and signed Tuiaualuma Alailefaleula.
- Josh Huston appears to have taken the lead from Lawrence Tynes in the kicking battle.
- There is still nothing new regarding Michael Strahan.
