of a quicker (albeit, less-reliable) Rice, actually.

great, hopefully

he's also watching video of Rice practicing instead of just playing, because part of what truly set Rice apart was his ridiculous discipline and patience in practice. He'd run routes at quarter speed over and over just to master every nuance.

This is what i expect

eli's completion % to be around 68% because of the short passes and screens.
Cruz getting about 110 catches and a lot of YAC

I think eli will be a good fantasy QB this year because of this.

Hopefully he trained like him as well

I doubt he would, and that's not a knock on Cruz. Rice was just so fanatical in his dedication that few would emulate it.

I think Cruz trains pretty

hard. Jerry is the greatest WR in NFL history with two outstanding QBs throwing to him; one of whom is considered one of the best QB in NFL history.
All Cruz really needs to improve on his watching the ball into his hands consistently.
