Cruz could offer a replacement for Welker and more of a deep threat. He is also just 26.
He went to UMASS
How the heck did the Pats miss this kid right in their back yard? Undrafted.
This forum had issues with Welker's drops throughout the season. Imagine their reaction when Cruz alligator arms one over the middle.
The kid has talent, but he's probably going to cost just as much (if not more) than Welker. Further, Welker has already mastered and excelled in the system and has shown no signs of slowing down (in spite of the prognostications of some in the preseason). Sign #83 and let the Giants deal with Cruz.

1) Pats don't use #1s on WRs.......a position that touches the ball a handfull of times/game
2) A #1 pick PLUS a big money contract??? Why do we keep going down this road and go against all we know of how BB operates. Under this scenario, you are asking BB to use resources that could land two solid starters....for one player? Did BB all of a sudden set aside the foundations of team building he has adhered to for decades ignoring his economic undergrad background.
Seymour, Bledsoe, Branch.....BB is the seller, not the buyer.

Cruz is a good player. Wish we had found him. But that window has passed. At this point, I'm willing to bet that Markus Wheaton will be as good as Victor Cruz, will cost less than trading a 1st, and will be available for 4 years at a fraction of the price. Target him in the 2nd round.

I think the Jets should steal him from the Giants. They need help on offense. Give up their top 10 pick and take on another big money contract. Buy high, sell low. Sounds like their kind of move.
I don't like salsa dancing
But I love TDs, and each time he salsa dances means he got one.
however when the Patriots are just a stones throw away.
