I don't think Ozzie can make an offer of enough money so that the Giants would be unable to match it.

I think the Giants have less cap room than us, not too sure though.
It's more of a case that Ozzie wont give up high draft picks AND money to get a player, no matter how good he is.
Re: Free Agent & Other Player Moves from Around the NFL
Cruz would be sick and he would be better than any other receiver they could get in the draft. The guy is 26 years old IIRC.
Cruz, Torrey, and Jacoby is one speedy receiver unit.

I like it. I dont think itll happen, but i like it. I think Amendola would be a nice Slot WR for a lot less. Still quick, obviously not as straight line fast but would work well here. I still dont think we even bring in a FA WR unless its off the scrap heap.

About the same as us...maybe a bit less.
I don't think Cruz is a realistic option. It would just be kind of funny to poach him from the Giants.
Cruz is looking for mega bucks though and the Ravens are going to have to pay Torrey at some point in the next two years as well. There won't be cap room for Cruz.
The Ravens really need to get Tandon Doss/Streeter/Thompson/LaQuan/David Reed to be good enough to be a starter because Torrey is going to be expensive and the Ravens aren't going to be able to afford multiple high-priced receivers.

It is absolutely a pipe dream.
I wasn't being serious at all about it.

right player, right price. Hes a great WR when healthy, but the price has to be right due to his history. He broke his collarbone on a freak play (laying out and making a great catch btw), so i dont hold that against him. Other than that he had a heel issue. I think his "injury history" is a little blown out of proportion.
Re: Free Agent & Other Player Moves from Around the NFL
I don't think the need is really for a player in the slot. I think it's for a player on the outside.
