I'm a bit surprised that Cruz is on any top WR list but I guess the numbers don't lie.

He still is a good receiver and really come back routes were probably about the only route that the Giants had time to throw.

Not sure I agree with the analysis although it is pretty interesting. I would rather see yards PER attempt/target on a wide receiver than just flat out yards. Point being, if Thomas for example gets 30 screen throws throughout a season and gets 280 yards, but 'xyz' receiver gets 225 yards on 15 throws, I'll be going him.

Still a good read all said, thanks for linking.

BTW, your signature is easily confused with a lost bet, being that you are the Seahawks rival (I know the Hawks is for Iowa).
