Giants.com Free Agent Central As the Giants' roster currently stands, just 17 players remain from the Super Bowl XLVI-winning team two years ago.
Two of those departures came on back-to-back days when defensive end Justin Tuck signed with the Oakland Raiders and defensive tackle Linval Joseph went to the Vikings in the first week of free agency.
That's the entire left side of the starting defensive line gone and needing to be replaced in 2014.
Here we take a look at how the Giants can fill the void by revamping with players waiting in the wings or reloading through the draft and free agency:
