My J. Hankins Take

jpindatz : 4/11/2017 6:36 pm
I think the Gmen had a chance to upgrade with the best run stuffing DT in the league and hoped that Hankins could become a DT that could push the pocket and rush the QB very effectively. What transpired IMHO is that JH was shown to be a lesser version of "Snacks", so the experiment did not work the way the Giants hoped. It may work out with a year under Hankins belt but he may not be willing to do that for less money then he may receive elsewhere for being a quality run stuffer. I think the Gmen should get a DT that can be adequate at run stuffing and excel at pushing the pocket and getting to the QB.
A Rocky Bernard type would suffice

If our DL is healthy
I'm not sure.....

Two nose guards works when the principal villain is domiciled in Dallas and has an interior built around Fredrickson and the kid from Notre Dame.
And Hankins could get a rush from inside in his sophomore year. I obviously defer to the coaches, but I don't think we saw his ceiling yet and I'd love to have him back.
Still some decent names available.

Even some players who might fit the traditional 3 technique for better.

My preference is Jared Odrick or Sen'Derrick Marks.

Some others:
Roy Miller
Paul Soliai
Kendall Reyes
Jonathan Babineaux
Sean Lissemore
Arthur Jones
Tony McDaniel
Kedric Golston
Vance Walker
Glenn Dorsey
Tyson Jackson

Is better than anyone still left in FA and the draft we sign him the DL becomes hopefully special that simple. They paid JPP on a risk he will continue to improve he is just like Hankins but Hankins has been on the field more. The devil you know is almost always better than the devil you don't know enough about. What does Hankins lack the sack numbers or tackle numbers all of our DL fell short in some areas last year nothing says they will be much better than last year except our hopes and prayers.
Arthur Jones

would be a good addition. He would be a nice fit in the rotation especially on 3rd down.
