Giants Near Salary Cap Limit, Need Line Help

0:00For the NFL, it's March 17th, and here's what's going on. The New York Giants jumped into free agency right away when it opened on March 11, snapping up several players. Now after a busy stretch, they're running low on salary cap space, with just about $22 million left on their top roster figure. Recent deals over the weekend pushed them close to the edge, according to the NFL Players Association data. Sites like SpotRack show that number, but plenty of new contracts haven't hit the books yet, so the real space could shrink even more. Team Insiders say the Giants have checked off most of their free agent targets. Still, there's agreement they need veteran help on both the offensive and defensive lines to round out the roster. To free a broom, they could cut veterans like kicker Graham Gano, or tweak existing deals on other players. Those moves are standard housekeeping this time of year. Whether they pull off those line additions depends on how much cap they squeeze out. For now, big blue might need to hit the brakes on spending.
