Seems like Hankins is overplaying his hand. I'd think the closer to the draft it gets, teams are just going to move on and draft a guy to take that position. We're example 1a, most mocks have us taking DL. He'll probably get a mediocre 1 year deal somewhere.

If we don't sign him, which could still happen before the draft, I hope it's for a smart cap related reason, and Scherff gets an extension as soon as it's allowed.

I'm a fan not a capologist. I don't give a damn about next years cap. That's the Skins problem. Just get me a damn Nose Tackle!

Agreed, but we'll care if we lose all 3 of Scherff, Smith and Crowder next year, won't we?
But yeah there may be some ways to get around this that we're not aware of.

Im now really interested to see how much he signs for and how long. I don't think he will get as good of a deal as he did last year late in FA.

If he has to settle for a 1 year deal, hoping he choses us.

I am not fan of 1 year deals (unless player had bad season or coming back from injury), I think one year deals for players like Hankins isn't ideal. It puts extra pressure on FO to resign the player next off season while trying to extend contracts with our players with expired contracts or signing some FAs. But then some could point to how this strategy worked out well with Zach Brown.

It also worked for Terrell Pryor. In both cases its a risk mitigator against scheme fit, locker room fit, or contract vs limited sample of "great play"...

Plus and others have mentioned this...contracts of younger performers on the team are coming up...which is true but that leads to obvious bigger discussions with Jordon Reed and Josh Norman contracts not this year but next. Im fairly confident unless Norman has a great/probowl season(he very well could) or Jordan Reed actually stays healthy and performs as a top 6-7 Tight End (he very well could)...both could be last years with the team...which would create the space we needed. Or we could redo their deals...but if one or both don't perform they absolutely WILL NOT get their full money in 2019 from the Skins.

Ideally we would sign him for 1 year, along with Payne or Vea. Next year we have a NT ready to step in, or we resign him if the Rook doesn't work out.

I can understand why as a NT he wants a long term deal though. May be his last real shot at one.

You'd think Hankins was Reggie White around here.

No but he's a real solid player at a position that has been of crucial need for several years.
Right now I don't think there's any real urgency to sign him, but he's the only FA left that would make sense IMO.

I don't think there's been a lot of hyperbole about Hankins. It's just that filling a clear need with a good player gives the FO the flexibility to go with a player who plays another position in the draft. If Vita Vea and an equally rated player are both available where the Skins would like to draft them, and we have already signed Hankins, then perhaps we take the other player and get stronger as a team than we would have if we hadn't signed Hankins and felt the need to take Vea. That's how i look at it, anyway.

We share same perspective, I like the flexibility we would have if we sign Hankins. Although if we sign him to one year deal then we still would have the need to draft Dline player (Vea, Payne or whoever else).
