If you had to pick one of them which one would you pull the trigger on?

Cruz will be a letdown this year.
Jones will be a breakout candidate. Top 10 WR if healthy all year.

Cruz, Fell in love with him on Hard Knocks.
Can't find the video to link, but Rex Ryan was like...who the frick is #3....can we get someone who can guard him?
this was the game
Cruz 7 games 100+ yards...2 games over 98 yards
7 of 9 tds versus Jets,Philly,Dallas,NO
Jones only 4 games 100+....and 7 of 8 tds vs Indy,Carolina,Tampa,Jax...(bottom tier teams last year on DEF)

Cruz in any format. WRs don't usually have much better 2nd years. Remember when Dez Bryant and Mike Williams were borderline top 10 WR going into drafts last year?

I'd probably take Julio.
I realize Cruz was pretty dynamic last year seeing how that 4 of his scores last season came from 65+ yards out but you can't rely on that every year. Cruz wasn't targeted that much in the redzone and that is where guys really do their damage who put up consistent TD numbers.
Julio missed some time but was pretty dynamic himself when on the field. he had 16 catches of 20+ yards and 7 of 40+ yards. He finished with a 17.8 yards per catch average, not bad at all.
Cruz finished with a 18.7 yards per catch, even better. I just feel like Jones has more upside. If he can stay healthy, he'll have a huge year. Jones also strikes me as more of red zone threat than Cruz.
