He probably doesnt want to sign a longer deal.. 30 is like the death blow to most players.. he can be under 30 and still get a deal.. Plus he has only been healthy one year..
I know we could make room for him, but it just seems odd the timing went 'Hankins, make up your damn mind' and then a bunch of players get signed.
Maybe, but aside from KR, most of the signings were for the minimum (or close to it). And if JTT is cut at some point, his savings should mostly cover the cost of KR so they'd still have plenty of the space created from the JPP extension to use for Hankins.
RE: All these signings to me seems to imply Hankins isn't coming back

Hoping we cut bait with Thomas...his cap hit cough be better used elsewhere

JT Thomas is likely to last through camp as a hedge against Robinson getting injured. Similar player with similar skills.

There were rumors last week that the Giants were simply waiting until JTT could pass a physical before releasing him.

If true, I would hope they'd give Odrick a look-see
Did you see the Raanan Tweet today:

Johnathan Hankins next? Optimism increasing in recent days. #Giants
He was 50-50 two days ago. So, this implies to me that Raanan thinks Hankins will be signed.

yes, saw that too. good possibility.
Not me. I was very wary of giving a guy with his injury history a multi-year deal.
I'll take a year of Kawika Mitchell impact.
