Tempest Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I had to ask for two reasons 1. Have to shake up the forum. 2. He can't possibly have a better 2012 season after the numbers he put up in 2011. Victor Cruz flew under the radar for most of 2011 and teams will not let him beat them again in 2012. I definitely see Nicks taking up some of the slack and would like to see a third receiver setup and fill the gap that Mario Manningham has left in our offense, could be Jernigan or Barden but I'll put my money on Hixon a year after a torn ACL 2 years in a row.

Sephiroth Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 It will be Barden, who will go down as the greatest receiver to ever play the position and will catch 150 balls for 2200 yards this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osi724dasack Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Yup, no slump for Nicks though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Yup, no slump for Nicks though. ....if you were to ask others on here, Nicks slumped this season and it's because of Cruz.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Cruz didn't feature in the first few games, so while his yards/game might slump he could easily match his 2011 totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeMesiS Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I doubt he repeats the number he put up in 2011. This is why it's smart that Giants didn't rush to pay him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrashTalker92 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Teams have the whole off season to be prepare for Cruz now. Remember the superbowl where Bilacheat was saying focus on nicks and Cruz and let our 3rd WR beat them. It'll be really interesting to see how GilBride handle it.

NightFire Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I doubt he repeats the number he put up in 2011. This is why it's smart that Giants didn't rush to pay him. I doubt he will be top 5 WR again but if he stays healthy and productive he deserves a good payday. As Trash Talker pointed out having another threat frees up other WRs to make plays. If Cruz didn't emerge as a threat Nicks would not have had such good plays during the SB run. He deserves good money because he will make the other WRs more productive, just like Nicks helps Cruz.
