suggests NFL is a "has beens" league. Good thing college exists to bring in talent.

How about 51 from little New Jersey.

More than New York or Alabama.
These must be opening day rosters

Or the numbers are off. I think we have 16 white players and the Texans looked like a hockey team out there last week. They gotta have more than 18 white players. Same with the Pats. The state by state graph is pretty cool.

Hispanic, other or Pacific Islander the Giants have had?

They're so black and white.
Only 52 Giants responded.

Maybe Cruz was #53. Or he may simply self-identify as African-American, which is his business. Apparently, Mark Sanchez ticked "Hispanic" - which fine too, aside from the embarrassment to all the hard-working Mexican-Americans who have never butt-fumbled.

Kawika Mitchell (born in Hawaii) is the last Pacific Islander I can remember playing a significant role for the Giants. Jake Muasau is Samoan, but he never made the team. The Giants haven't really jumped on the Samoa bandwagon. (Chris Maumalanga, maybe?) And they continue to ignore the vast pool of talent in Japan's sumo dohyos.
It would be funny

Vermont has too few people; RI has only one with a population of 5 million compared to Vermonts 750k.

And the beer is damn good - if you can get it. Maple Syrup isn't bad either.
oops....1 million for RI population.

We have several VT college players in NFL.
