John Conner is not on that list.
Wonder if that's it for Hosley

coasting thru camp??
If you were an undrafted rookie free agent  
Jerz44 : 8/16/2014 12:57 pm : link
who played a position of obvious need, wouldn't you do just about anything to get on the field?

Even if it meant hobbling around? Short of a broken bone or a torn ACL, I can't imagine not getting on the field when there's such a glaring need at TE.
I wonder what

Hollidays chances are to make the team since he can't seem to get on the field.

It is almost certainly not up to the player. If the medical staff says you can't go...you can't go.

Right now? Almost 0%

But they signed him to be the PR/KR and it only takes 1 game for him to shine there. It's not like the other returners are setting the world on fire in his absence...
I dont think Patterson is a lock to make the team  
DavidinBMNY : 8/16/2014 1:31 pm : link
He better get on the field. Bromley is showing a lot more thrn I expected and Quarles is good enough to make an nfl roster IMHO.
Beckam  
shabu : 8/16/2014 1:32 pm : link
Does anyone know if this kid will actually play in a preseason game ? I have great fear about his ability to gel with Eli this year given complete training camp wash out.

I am not 100% up to date on his injury etc.

He should be back for next weeks game.

On the bright side, Beckham isn't a complete stranger to Eli. He's been catching passes from him every Spring/Summer going back to his high-school days.

What is it that makes you think he has a choice in the matter?

Hosley
Except for Beckham and Beason  
Gman11 : 8/16/2014 2:53 pm : link
It doesn't matter if the rest of them play.

Even though Patterson did fairly well last year I don't think they would miss him much. Hosley? He's probably played himself off the roster anyway. Grimble? He was probably a long shot anyway. Holliday? With the emergence of Harris and Washington how can they justify giving a guy a roster spot that only returns kicks?
I must say usually by this time of year our  
Chris L. : 8/16/2014 3:03 pm : link
list of guys not playing (especially important guys) is double what we have here.
Last chance for Mario.

He needs to look great -- not good, great -- to get himself back into the roster discussion.

I know. But I'm not saying
Patterson  
PaulN : 8/16/2014 3:23 pm : link
Does not need to show what he can do all pre season, if he plays next week, and plays well, then he is a lock. He has experience, and we need experience badly at DT. We have enough inexperience and youth, we need Patterson to make this team, and badly. If you think that is not important, then I don't know if you understand much at all. If he can not get on the field, is out of shape, and has problems, then that is another story, but I do not think that is the case at all.
I wanted the Giants to draft Xavier but it will be hard now  
Mason : 8/16/2014 3:41 pm : link
I wonder if they will stash him on the PS. He was injured a lot the last two years in college which hurt him. I hope he has time to showcase himself.

I always thought he was headed to the PS. Now, it's a certainty. I guess a great camp could have gotten him on the roster but that didn't happen and it's probably too late now no matter what.
my perspective  
tomjgiant : 8/16/2014 6:13 pm : link
Beckham, will play next game and be ready for the opener.
Holliday, needs to get on the field,still think they want him to be the returner.(punts and/or kicks)
Hosley, very much in danger of being cut.
Hilis, on the bubble,think they are keeping Cox,may have to be healthy to keep job over Gaskins.
Beason, not worried, he will be back.
Fells, think he has a good chance of making roster ,but needs to be healthy.
Grimble, straight to practice squad,
Patterson, being hurt does not help him,with Bromley looking like a player,could be odd man out.

Daniel Fells is the #1 or #2 TE on this team right now.
from the looks of it the entire team is not playing
