Fantasy Profile: Victor Cruz, WR, New York Giants
Victor Cruz was sidelined all but six games in 2014 with an injury, allowing rookie receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to thrive. Cruz is still recovering and looks solid in camp according to Beat writer Jordan Raanan. Cruz is on track to play in Week 1, and the combination of Beckham Jr. and Cruz could be deadly for opposing defenses.
Quarterback Eli Manning is very capable of making great throws and spreading the ball around. Cruz is still dangerous even if he loses some of his speed due to the injury, and a mid-30’s finish at the wide receiver position is very achievable.
