The Giants have waived
WR Brandon London, who apparently didn't do enough to beat out Sinorice Moss for the final receiver spot. London will definitely be on the practice squad if he clears waivers. We'll see if that happens.
That makes seven of 22 cuts with these six already confirmed.
Heads (or is it helmets?) start to roll for New York Giants

First of all, my apologies for not posting my roster projection. I had the worst connection issues in the history of the Internet yesterday and had to find a hard line today because both of my wireless connections are shot for some reason.
That being said, I already know a handful of cuts and guys who believe they made the team. So to post a projection now would be an unfair exercise. Again, my apologies for missing something I would have preferred to do.
Here are your first six (of what will be 22) cuts that I have confirmed:
*DE Wallace Gilberry
*DE Alex Morrow
*TE Jerome Collins
*OL Na'Shan Goddard
*OL Digger Bujnoch
*DT Jeremy Clark
Gilberry was a bit of a surprise in my book. Thought he had a pretty good shot at making this roster. I'm sure they'll try to add him to the practice squad.
Morrow flashed early in camp, but I didn't see much late.
Collins never really panned out here. He came in with high hopes from what I had heard.
Goddard was an undrafted free agent who made the team in 2006.
Bujnoch suffered a sprained MCL late in the game against the Pats. That was a shame because he was two minutes from making the practice squad. He'll receive an injury settlement, which will mean he'll be eligible to come back six weeks after the negotiated settlement.
New York Giants release Schweigert

One more cut for you:
S Stuart Schweigert, who was
signed late in camp.
That leaves four safeties on the roster: James Butler, Michael Johnson, Kenny Phillips and Sammy Knight. You would think all four will be on the team, but don't forget the Giants might need to nip and tuck here and there to keep an extra kicker and maybe another WR and/or RB.
Speaking of RBs, sounds like they haven't made their decisions there. That could mean they're trying to shop one of the guys to see what they can get in return.
Fourteen cuts to go...

CB Geoffrey Pope, who played in two of the four playoff games last season, has been waived. He figures to be on the practice squad if he clears waivers.
Also waived was rookie
OL Andrew Bain.
Ten more...
