Giants DT Linval Joseph required postseason surgery to remove a cyst from his left ankle.
Coach Tom Coughlin downplayed the procedure, suggesting Joseph will be "fine." The one unsung member of the Giants' stout front four, Joseph came up big in the playoffs, pushing the pocket and plugging the middle in the run game.

Linval Joseph is working as the new starting nose tackle at Giants training camp.
He'll open the season there. The 46th overall pick in last year's draft, Joseph is Barry Cofield's replacement. Joseph only played 60 defensive snaps in his rookie season, so he's going from non-factor to first-teamer without being eased in. Still, Joseph has loads of talent and was a star in 2010 training camp. The Giants' run defense projects as an easy top-ten unit in 2011.

SI's Peter King calls second-round DT Linval Joseph "the most impressive draft choice in [Giants] camp."
Defensive tackle wasn't high on the Giants' list of needs heading into the draft, but Joseph was easily the top player on the their draft board when the 46th selection came around. He'll be a rotational player for what should be the most improved defensive line in the league.

Giants rookie DT Linval Joseph's run stuffing ability has been highlighted early in camp.
As we suggested on draft day, Joseph will look to have the biggest impact of any Giants rookies. If he continues his impressive performance, he could threaten to steal some of Barry Cofield's snaps, and might even be the starter come the end of the season. The Giants' defense is in for a major bounce-back year.

Andre Brown
Suspended
NFL suspended Giants RB Andre Brown four games for violating the league's policy against performance enhancers.
Running back increasingly is becoming a major need area for the G-Men. Brown, 25, was set to make a hard push for a roster spot after battling injuries his first three seasons in the league. For his career, Brown has only two rushes in four appearances. The Giants may look early in the draft for a running back, perhaps eyeballing Boise State's Doug Martin at No. 32.

Hakeem Nicks
Sidelined
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on
SportsCenter
Friday that there is optimism in the Giants' organization about Hakeem Nicks' (foot surgery) availability for the season opener.
The Giants are on a slightly shorter timeline than the rest of the league because they play the Cowboys in the Wednesday night NFL opener on September 5. Per Schefter, however, Giants doctors don't believe Nicks' fractured fifth metatarsal is a "dire" injury, and he could be back at some point in August. Nicks' injury caused an initial scare, but he sure seems likely to play in Week 1, barring setbacks. He's just not going to do much, if anything, in camp.

Giants WR Dan DePalma is recovering from offseason hip surgery.
There are no details on the procedure. An undersized (5-11/195) receiver from D-II West Chester (Pa.) University, DePalma played the role of Wes Welker as a practice squad player last year. Although Giants defenders tabbed DePalma as one of the toughest to cover, he remains a long-shot for the 53-man roster.

Giants TE Jake Ballard (microfracture, ACL surgery) concedes his best chance to return in 2012 is by mid-season, "if at all."
Ballard will start training camp as well as the regular season on the PUP list. Having signed Martellus Bennett to a one-year contract, the Giants aren't going to count on a contribution from Ballard until the 2013 season.

Travis Beckum
Sidelined
According to the New York Daily News, there's a "pretty good chance" Giants TE Travis Beckum (torn ACL) will be ready for the start of the regular season.
"If everything works out, yeah," Beckum said. Beckum is still only two months removed from surgery, so color us skeptical. Even with Jake Ballard (torn ACL) in danger of missing the entire year, the G-Men have little incentive to rush Beckum back after signing Martellus Bennett and drafting Adrien Robinson. Beckum remains a strong candidate for the PUP list.
