This is how I see this at this point
1.Plax
2.Toomer
3.Smith
4 Hixon(you can actually make a point he might have a shot at 3)
5.Tyree(him being clutch and a special teams ace gives him a roster spot)
6.Manningham
----------------------------
7.Moss
8.Thorpe
9.Hall
10.Jennings
11.London
Giants keep 6.Tyree will be pupped till week 6,which means we have a few weeks to figure out what to do with Moss.
Hall will hopefully end up on the practice squad,the rest are gonners.
RB.
1.Jacobs
2.Bradshaw
3.Ward
4.Ware
5.Droughns
Droughns is in serious trouble,but IMO we really need to find a way to keep him,as he is so usefull in so many aspects,special teams,backup short yardage back,can be a backup FB,3rd down back.

Manningham hasn't stepped onto the field and he's ahead of Moss and London? I don't see it that way. Just because he was a high pick doesn't mean he'll play....doesn't mean he'll make the team (although I assume he would).

And when he was on the field for 5 minutes, he did not look good according to the reports.

I put Moss 6th right now, then London, then Manningham.

I would too(put Moss and London ahead of him)except for the factor he is a hi-ish draft pick,and its injuries that have kept him off the field(seemingly like 75% of every rookie WR in their first camp,over exerting or injuries obtained training for combines).
Manningham hasn't proven anything either way.
Interestingly enough,Manningham,Toomer,and Smith all practiced yesterday and might play Sunday,you think Hixon's apparent emergence might have made these guys instantly heal overnight(especially in Smith and Manningham's case)

just going by your list I would have to put London right behind Hixon based on the camp he's had, but I know thats not the way it works.

I didn't realize Manningham actually made it onto the field. I hope he plays well in the next few weeks. His route running was atrocious (I believe it was mini camp).

Btw, Jennings has absolutely no shot imo. Dropped passes all over the place this camp.

Manningham will be a typical 2-3 year WR developmental player(like most WRs,as most can't run crisp NFL routes,then he must learn the nuances of our sight option routes,which he will only after her gets his route running tight)
I wasn't expecting much from him this year,and possibly next(as opposed tp Smith,who already was a good route runner and played in a somewhat sight adjust offense,at least he did in USC as most slot recievers do).
Our depth will allow him to develop without being rushed,but Manningham is a 3 year development.
