Re: Around the NFL Free Agency Thread 2013
Giants and Victor Cruz not close...he wants Dwayne Bowe money.
Quote:
Cruz has already expressed a desire to sign a long-term deal with his hometown team many times, and the Giants have said they intend to keep him. That’s why, as the Daily News reported two weeks ago, the Giants offered Cruz a long-term deal worth $7 million annually, which one NFL source added included more than $20 million guaranteed.
Cruz, with his former agent, was believed to be seeking much more, however. Several NFL sources said his asking price was closer to $10 million-$11 million per year, which is about the going rate for a No. 1 receiver in the NFL. With the two sides not close, the Giants gave Cruz a “first-round tender” before the free-agent market opened in early March, which would get him a salary of $2.879 million 2013 if he signs it.
