The New York Giants released their first preseason depth chart on Monday and it offered precious few surprises.

At quarterback, the Giants are going with Eli Manning as their No. 1 guy. Who would have guessed it?

In fact, the depth chart reads as every fan would expect it to with only a sole exception. Rather than Victor Cruz being listed as the No. 2 wide receiver, Big Blue went with rookie second-round pick Sterling Shepard.

Also interesting to note, the Giants listed Nikita Whitlock as their starting fullback, while Will Johnson was far down on the list of tight ends. Also, Whitlock was not named among the defensive tackles.

Speaking of tight ends, Larry Donnell got the nod on this particular depth chart, with Will Tye listed as the No. 2.

Here’s a scattershot look at other depth chart tidbits:

Paul Perkins is listed alongside Orleans Darkwa behind Rashad Jennings, Shane Vereen and Andre Williams.

Geremy Davis and Tavarres King back up the usual suspects at wide receiver.

Greg Milhouse and Davon Coleman are listed as the reserve defensive tackles.

Devon Kennard, Jasper Brinkley and Jonathan Casillas are the starting linebackers.

Brad Bars is listed as SLB, while Keenan Robinson and Ishaq Williams are listed as WLB.

Eli Apple is listed as the No. 3 cornerback.

As head coach Ben McAdoo alluded to on Monday, Darian Thompson is listed as the starting free safety.

Special teams remains unchanged.

Yes, Marshall Newhouse is still the starting right tackle.

So what does all of this mean? Not much of anything. Pat Traina of Inside Football explains:

But hey, it’s always fun to speculate and debate based on how these things shake out. It’s the whole point of training camp and preseason football for fans.
