Cruzing For Ther Big Money

Just about every team will need to make difficult decisions about their free agents. The New York Giants are faced with the challenge of signing WR Victor Cruz. As an undrafted free agent, he came into the league with a two year contract and was a bargain this season at $490,000. He is looking for big-time money because of his 168 catches for 2,628 yards and 19 TD's in his first two seasons.

The Giants have said they will only go so far and won't break the bank for him. They have leverage over Cruz who will not be an unrestricted free agent until after the 2014 season. They could offer him $3 million for the season and get a first round draft pick he he bolts to another team. However, they would also lose one of heir best offensive weapons.

It looks like the Giants can get at least two more years from him unless some team wants to give up their first round pick
