Player Notes
September 4, 2008
For the Giants game with the Redskins on Thursday night, the following New York players are inactive: Lawrence Tynes, Reuben Droughns , Terrell Thomas, Sam Madison, Jonathan Goff, Adam Koets, Dave Tollefson, and Mario Manningham, according to Giants.com

Our View:With Droughns on the sidelines, that could mean Derrick Ward and Ahmad Bradshaw could have a chance at some additional touches.

NFL teams will be trimming rosters today as most cut approximately 20 players to get down to final regular-season rosters, and for the Giants' offense it seems both Reuben Droughns and Sinorice Moss are firmly planted on the bubble, according to the New York Daily News.

Our View:Moss could be retained but has failed to emerge as a definitive contributor. The 30-year-old Droughns (12 carries, 40 yards this preseason) faces the same numbers problem. He is fourth on the depth chart behind Brandon Jacobs (18-109), Derrick Ward (15-84) and Ahmad Bradshaw (30-90). Should the Giants keep his experience, or go with another promising youngster, Danny Ware (33-181)?
August 20, 2008
The NY Post speculates that Reuben Droughns won't likely make the Giants' final roster.

Our View:He hasn't seen much action in the preseason and Danny Ware could beat him out for the last spot on the Giants' depth chart at running back. Brandon Jacobs, Ahmad Bradshaw, and Derrick Ward are all viewed as locks to make the team.
July 2, 2008
Reports out of New York indicate veteran running back Reuben Droughns may be fighting to keep a spot on the Giants roster, according to the Sporting News.

Our View:With Brandon Jacobs, Derrick Ward, and Ahmad Bradshaw gracing the roster, local reporters are questioning why the team granted Droughns a bonus on March 1st of $250K, for now there seems to be little room for him on the depth chart. The word is that the Giants may push him to special teams and they may seek trade offers should another franchise find a need for a running back in training camp.
February 27, 2008
The New York Giants could release RB Rueben Droughns, according to the New York Times. The article speculates with Brandon Jacobs, Ahmad Bradshaw and Derrick Ward on the roster, the organization has no need for the veteran running back. Droughns, who is an eight-year veteran journeyman type, appears to be caught up in a numbers game in the Big Apple. He rushed for 1,200-yards as recently as 2005, as a member of the Cleveland Browns, so he could latch on as a backup on a different team.
