The Giants "won't be afraid to start" second-round C Weston Richburg in Week 1 if they think he's ready. |
The battle for the starting center spot could "absolutely go either way," according to ESPN's Dan Graziano. The Giants gave veteran J.D. Walton $3 million guaranteed in March and he remains the favorite to start, but won't be handed the job. Richburg will serve as the top interior reserve if he doesn't beat out Walton. |

Giants second-round C Weston Richburg has been getting reps at guard in OTAs. |
"We have so many guys," coach Tom Coughlin said. "We're just moving everyone around." Richburg is competing with J.D. Walton for center duties, but could be ticketed as the Giants' top reserve interior lineman if Walton's (ankle) health checks out. |
