I don't know about that UCF Knight -- In Reese We Trust.

It appeared that the Giants may have been targeting a running back with the 32nd overall pick – or at least that’s what the Tampa Bay Buccaneers must have though. Just before the Giants picked, the Bucs – whose offensive coordinator is former Giants quarterbacks coach Mike Sullivan – traded up to 31 and grabbed Boise State running back Doug Martin. Presumably they thought Martin would be the Giants’ choice.
But Giants GM Jerry Reese said Wilson was the second-rated running back on his board – presumably behind Alabama’s Trent Richardson, who went third overall. Marc Ross, the Giants’ director of college scouting, said it was a “very easy” pick.
“A terrific football player,” Reese added. “This guy loves to play football. He’s fast. He’s productive. He can do anything you want him to do. He can catch the ball. He can return kicks. ”

Who's the "best acrobat in the NFL"? David Wilson says (and shows) it's him, not Jason Pierre-Paul.
