Looks like the Giants are moving swiftly this offseason to lock up some players they'd like a second look at.





Across the league, teams have begun to sign players to future/reserve contracts as we head into the offseason. A lot of these players represent camp bodies, but it's a great way to retain players who show promise.





In a move that flew under the radar, the Giants signed ten members of their practice squad earlier today, letting just one man loose.

CB Donte Deayon, S Ryan Murphy, OL Jon Halapio also will sign futures contracts with the Giants, per sources https://t.co/2wURE84lUX — Dan Duggan (@DDuggan21) January 9, 2017





The Giants decided to retain their entire practice squad except for guard Adam Gettis. Gettis actually played a game for the Giants at left guard this season, and didn't look too bad. The Giants might have let him go to see if he could find a better opportunity with more playing time somewhere else.





​Donte Deayon, a frisky, chirping cornerback out of Boise State, and Michael Hunter of Oklahoma State also saw action with the team as CBs this year. Darius Powe, a wide receiver out of Cal, has been compared to ​Hakeem Nicks, for what it's worth.





A couple of other standouts include Jon Halapio, a 2014 sixth-round pick of the Patriots at guard, and Kevin Norwood, a former Seahawks WR out of Alabama. Both of these players were interesting draft prospects but neither has caught on in the NFL.





These guys may never have a huge impact on the Giants, but they play a critical role in the organization's day to day operations. And based on these intriguing characteristics, they may have more to offer than what we've seen this far.
