Not with his high asking price. The Giants can match any offer thrown at him and i think it would take way to much to get him.

Isn't Cruz in the last year of his dirt cheap deal, and aren't his contract demands outrageous? And last i checked he would make a horrible d lineman.

He is going to hold out as he said and nyg made it clear they are not going to make him a priority in any way.
he holds out and and we give up our 1st pick in a trade or some combo of our picks and NYG will gladly let him go.
That solves our need for WR via FA and as to his outrageous demands no other team will have a pick in the 1st to give up for him as we do. Therefore we make an offer higher than the NYG and he's on his way

No they have made it quite clear they will not as he is not a priority and will become a liability to the team if he stays as he would be a cancer to their season.

Of course I'd love to have him under the right contract. However, there will be a domino effect with Crabtree's upcoming extension. To get Cruz we'd likely have to pay him more than Crabtree. Rest assure Crabtree will ask to one-up Cruz's contract.

We also need to extend Kaepernick after next season. Only so much money to go around.

Bold predictions I could see that going the total opposite way as well and like to know who the hell will be our WR then? Please share your valuable insight ..

So we trade our #1 for him, then next year he is a free agent, pulls this crap and we let him walk. Complete waste of a first round pick. This isnt what got us here. Good drafting got us where we are, not over paying for free agents and giving away high draft picks for players in the last year of their bargain deals.

I say we give our 1st, 3rd, 4th to the Jets for Revis, our 2nd, 5th, and Manningham back to NYG for Cruz, plus we franchise tag Goldson. Then in two years when Kap walks we can bring Alex Smith back because he will be a free agent by then. Also, Ricardo Lockett will unseat Crabs as the #1 wr so we don't need to worry about extending him either.

Cruz is going to get overpaid. He's unique in that he makes big plays from the slot, but the Giants tried to line him up on the outside at times and he couldn't produce. There is a reason they are highly committed to re-signing Nicks but not Cruz. Nicks is a true #1 and can line up at each WR position. Cruz is dynamic, but strictly a slot receiver.

this isn't Madden bro, Revis is selfish and an overpaid douche for 16 mill and Cruz isn't coming here so....
