until after the draft has settled? Perhaps his agent thinks that if a team does not feel a need at DT, they may come calling? I don't know what do you guys think?
Sometimes s house is priced way too high relative to its true worth. The owner or agent doesn't understand the market or the true value of the house. Once time goes by and there no interest, or no interest close to the asking price, buyers start thinking there's something wrong with it.
From what I've read, he hasn't visited any teams and the Dolphins offered him a 1 year $4 m show me contract to be a backup. If that's the case, I'm wondering if Reese either didn't offer anything or more likely dropped the offer which was rumored to be in the $7 m range years unknown. Hankins may be really pissed they asked for $10-12 m and having trouble dealing with his true value . Or, as mentioned above, his agent really screwed the pooch
If they are all 1 year deals then I would believe that the Giants would be the best situation for him because he knows the system, city, coaches, management, opponents, etc. He can just focus on football. He is surrounded by arguably the best DL in football and arguably the best secondary too. He will have more than enough opportunities to do his thing. The only downside I see is if he has a big year but teams feel it was only because of who he was surrounded by rather than what he was able to do personally.
If he goes to a different team there is way more risk but one the slight chance he dominates with lesser talent around him increasing his value. But there is a good chance his is just the same and when you factor in learning a new scheme, learning how to play with your teammates, learning new opponents if you go to the AFC, etc. it is too risky imo.
So, this only holds true if everything is equal on years and overall/guaranteed money.
Btw, I think he and Suh would be terrific together.. Â
That is correct. Don't be surprised if he pulls a Plaxico and fires his agent who winds up taking the fall for this one.
From what I understand part of the problem is that the Giants original offer, which was for about 7 mil per year for 3 years has now been pulled based on what the market has shown. Once an informal offer goes out, the agents use it as a starting point, which the Giants are no longer willing to do. The opposite actually as they have now come way down.
There is also a pride issue in play. At some point players (if they are going to take a "show me" deal) want to go to a new team, where they figure that if they play well they will get the long term deal there. Almost like hitting the reset button on a career. Apparently this happens a lot.
Miami is one team in the mix but there is another that my source doesn't know yet who is sniffing around like a shark with blood in the water looking to get a good value on a good player who is getting antsy.

with 3 all stars in your DL, and based on what he did last year, can he easily be replaced? I think the answer is yes....they are not going to pay him big bucks, and I think he goes to whoever makes a decent offer....
There is no comparison between JH and snacks however those of you that say Hankins isn't that good remember there are two sides to a defense of line in the giants run defense last year was phenomenal Snacks was the biggest part of that but so was Hankins I don't really have an answer as to why he's getting little to no interest but he is definitely under valued here by some
Think Hankins is better at his position then some of these other guys at their positions but are getting ridiculous money I understand that defensive tackle is not a sexy position but some of the money these receivers got is ridiculous
Hankins deserves to be paid in the 10m/year range. Of course teams dont care about that, but can't expect Big Hank to be quick to sign for much less than that.
but his agent seems to have botched this for him, sadly. And as much as I like Hank, he's not really in the position or a great enough player to hold out. I think he winds up staying when all is said and done.
If you play Dallas twice a year. Matchups, it's all about matchups...he's better than a classic no. 3, because against Dallas it's about that rough interior and less about rushing Prescott.
Not Hankins is the problem when the best NT tackle Wilfork was a free agent and without a doubt the best in the game did he get a big payday? I don't know why but the NT position player is needed but not highly paid for by most teams. He is right now at the point where he could become the best in a couple of years or just remain the solid NT he has been no one knows but teams don't pay the NT position big dollars the simple fact.

Well of course he's undervalued by some and overvalued by others, like every other player in the NFL since the dawn of FA. The market is telling him that he's not a highly coveted, game changing DT and he's not. He's a solid run stopping DT, nothing more, nothing less. He won't get you killed but he's not leading some resurgence on a DL with little talent either. He's pretty good, that's about it.
A three year contract would be best for both sides. Â
If he blossoms into a more elite player, when the contract is up he's still young enough for another payday. A one year contract not smart for Giants. If Hankins "proves it," then he can thank the team for making him a better player and get his big money with another team. Another Marcellus Bennett fiasco.
Hankins still has room to grow. If he can remember where those seven sacks came from, a DT who is good at run stuffing but can pressure up the middle on passing downs and come away with a half dozen sacks, that player would get his big bucks. Over three years there's a pretty good chance that Harrison misses a string of games and Hank can show his stuff without being under the shadow of Snacks.
One thing for sure, he'll be making a terrible mistake if he doesn't return to the Giant before that door closes. He tested free agency and it wasn't there for him.
...agreed. One very good season interspersed by a serious injury. Which is why his asking price is confusing. A one year deal makes the most sense to establish a stronger track record. He's probably better off signing elsewhere where he'll play the nose whether it be a 3-4 or 4-3 scheme. At 6'3/320# that's his 'natural' position imo.
Jerry said that he wanted to bring back that whole defensive unit, Â
and so far everything that he's has done has been consistent with that.
I agree that eight million is just not reasonable for Hankins to expect. But I think Jerry has a serious offer on the table. If it's three years, five million maybe he could push it up to six. The Giants have him through the rest of Eli's career and when the contract is up Hankins is still a young man and can get paid well again.
If Hankins doesn't come back then there will be a downgrade at his position. Will the defense play as well with his replacement? I don't know, but you'd rather not downgrade any position just to save a few million.
But right now it's Hankin's move. Seems so strange to be getting so little hard information about what's going on and who's offering what.
Yeah, I think Tuck made that mistake. Reese's offer was low enough that Tuck thought it was insulting. So he signs with the Raiders for a little more money and how does that work out?
Pride can get in the way. But Hankins is just a young guy without a long resume of accomplishments.
This is my opinion - I believe a committee can improve upon his play Â
Neither side is in a hurry to get a deal done and that not much will change between now and the draft.
I just don't see how that's possible. I'd assume the Giants will want to know if they are going to need to draft a DT and I'd assume Hankins value is going to go down even more the closer we get to the draft. Whose going to offer him more money when they can draft a guy in a couple of weeks.
Bingo! He can however hold out from making $$$$, that would be
quite dumb on his part. The market has not played out well
for the DT position in general. Only the guy from the Ravens
got a big pay day. Poe and Benny Logan took one year deals.
Eventually Hankins will make a decision, but he is not in a hurry. Some want him re-signed, I just wish they had a real viable option. Thomas was a 'street' free agent, and I haven't seen that much from Bromley.
As I mentioned previously, Vereen should take a paycut, and
JR got my memo (LOL)....I also said DRC should take one,
IF they want Hankins badly enough. If they don't, move on
to a cheaper alternative.

Just asking, did you notice the GTD money for JPP, not quite
40-43 mill. eh? I tried to tell you. As they say, live and learn.

I literally have no clue what you're talking about.
Funny how people forget when they are so wrong.
For your recollection purposes, you were constantly banging the drum about how much GTD. money JPP would get, at least
40-43 mill. I told you a couple times, that's not going to happen. I am not trying to be 'that guy', but you were consistent with your commentary on his GTD. money.
I guess if you want to have selective memory, that's up
to you.
Yeah because I should remember everything that I talk about on a message board. I'm not quite sure your point, but he did get 40 million guaranteed.
.
If you talk as much crap as you do, maybe you should?
Here you go, $29M FULLY guaranteed at signing (signing bonus + 2017 salary + $7.5M of 2018 salary).
Your high horse considering just about everybody that writes for the NFL says it's 40 million guaranteed. Including multiple Giants writers & Spotrac.com (Linked below)

You're confusing Fully Guaranteed at Signing with Total Guaranteed. As spotrac lists them, it's $29 million for the former, $40 million for the latter.

Barry Cofield, 4th round, 2006. Started from Day One.

Unless a team suffers training camp or preseason injury, but what player is gonna roll them dice?
Snacks is the big man now at DT, Hank is 2nd fiddle. He can be replaced for less w/o much of a drop off.
Teams may fill their long term needs for DTs with day 2 picks. Why pay a fairly average run stuffer so much $ when there are other, cheaper options.
Supply & demand.
If he goes to a different team there is way more risk but one the slight chance he dominates with lesser talent around him increasing his value.

No egg on your face if the Giants are offering the most money like Dolphins beat writer Armando Salguero suggested the other day.
They really don't have a spot for him. They just spent big money on Malik Jackson last year and Calais Campbell this year.
Yeah, I think Tuck made that mistake. Reese's offer was low enough that Tuck thought it was insulting. So he signs with the Raiders for a little more money and how does that work out?
Pride can get in the way. But Hankins is just a young guy without a long resume of accomplishments.
I believe Bromley is a better quick penetrator.
I believe Okwara, JPP, are better inside pass rushers when everyone knows that statistical the opposition has to pass.
I just don't see how that's possible. I'd assume the Giants will want to know if they are going to need to draft a DT and I'd assume Hankins value is going to go down even more the closer we get to the draft. Whose going to offer him more money when they can draft a guy in a couple of weeks.
