Giants GM Jerry Reese acknowledged that he advised Victor Cruz to turn down an invitation to appear on
Dancing with the Stars
.
"He had one good year, one good year don't make you a great football player," Reese said. "It means you had one good year. He's a smart young man, I think he wants to focus on what's most important, and that's football. Maybe at some point later on in his career he might be able to do that."

Victor Cruz expects to remain in the slot in three- and four-receiver sets regardless of the Giants' additions at wide receiver the rest of the offseason.
"I have gotten comfortable with it throughout the year and that is my position," said Cruz. If Cruz is correct, that leaves Ramses Barden with an advantage over Jerrel Jernigan for the No. 3 role. It's important for Cruz's fantasy value as well because Eli Manning has heavily targeted his slot receiver going back to Steve Smith.

GM Jerry Reese indicated that a new contract for Victor Cruz is on the Giants' "plate" this offseason.
The Giants single-season record holder for receiving yards is entering the final year of a contract that will pay him just $540,000. Taking part in voluntary workouts, Cruz reiterated that he has no intention of holding out regardless of contract status.

ESPN New York
Victor Cruz isn't considering a holdout.
Cruz is on the record as believing he deserves a big raise from his current scheduled 2012 salary of $540,000, but says "holdout" is "not in my vocabulary." Outside of holding out, Cruz has precious little leverage in contract talks. He'll be a restricted free agent next offseason.

Andre Brown
Suspended
NFL suspended Giants RB Andre Brown four games for violating the league's policy against performance enhancers.
Running back increasingly is becoming a major need area for the G-Men. Brown, 25, was set to make a hard push for a roster spot after battling injuries his first three seasons in the league. For his career, Brown has only two rushes in four appearances. The Giants may look early in the draft for a running back, perhaps eyeballing Boise State's Doug Martin at No. 32.

Hakeem Nicks
Sidelined
Hakeem Nicks will be sidelined for approximately 12 weeks after fracturing the fifth metatarsal in his right foot on Thursday.
The non-contact injury occurred while Nicks was running a route tree in morning practice. He will undergo surgery Friday to have a screw inserted for stabilization. The timetable provided by the Giants would have Nicks out until the middle of training camp, and perhaps until a couple of weeks before the season opener. This is the latest in a string of lower-leg injuries for Nicks, who has dealt with multiple issues to his toe, foot, ankle, and knee since joining the Giants in 2009. As long as he's on course over the next couple of months, Nicks will remain a high-risk, high-reward fantasy selection as a top-12 receiver.

Sidelined
Giants WR Dan DePalma is recovering from offseason hip surgery.
There are no details on the procedure. An undersized (5-11/195) receiver from D-II West Chester (Pa.) University, DePalma played the role of Wes Welker as a practice squad player last year. Although Giants defenders tabbed DePalma as one of the toughest to cover, he remains a long-shot for the 53-man roster.

Jake Ballard
Sidelined
Giants TE Jake Ballard (microfracture, ACL surgery) concedes his best chance to return in 2012 is by mid-season, "if at all."
Ballard will start training camp as well as the regular season on the PUP list. Having signed Martellus Bennett to a one-year contract, the Giants aren't going to count on a contribution from Ballard until the 2013 season.

Travis Beckum
Sidelined
According to the New York Daily News, there's a "pretty good chance" Giants TE Travis Beckum (torn ACL) will be ready for the start of the regular season.
"If everything works out, yeah," Beckum said. Beckum is still only two months removed from surgery, so color us skeptical. Even with Jake Ballard (torn ACL) in danger of missing the entire year, the G-Men have little incentive to rush Beckum back after signing Martellus Bennett and drafting Adrien Robinson. Beckum remains a strong candidate for the PUP list.
