NT Johnathan Hankins expected to sign

Henderson: Seattle interested in NT Johnathan Hankins (SI: now expected to sign)

I'm fine if very cheap.

 

[Fresno Hawk]

He's a big body, that's always good to help LBS get easy tackles.

Wow, a NT is "mostly an early down defender" that's some real insight.

 

[IndyHawk]

If we look at MM Ravens D doesn't it start up front with big NTs?
I'm all for size up front.

11 year vet sounds a bit old, but if he can still play why not take a look? 3 sacks from the NT is pretty good as well, maybe more than just a big road block in the middle.

You have to rotate the big boys

 

[Appyhawk]

We got Fant back for the O Line. Why change the play call just because we're now talking defense?

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Can never have too many big bodies in the trenches, esp. on the D line.

Very curious what this team is going to look like in a couple years. It's already drastically different.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Good

Very curious what this team is going to look like in a couple years. It's already drastically different.

And it appears we are getting well stocked with picks for the draft NEXT year, unlike our situation this year.

Good added depth guy.

I would be on board with this addition.

Seattle is not going to get every piece of need in this draft alone. But, you can definitely still add to current depth right now at a good price for these free agents.

I’m sure the draft will re-supply the future trenches of this program and it will take 3 or 4 more drafts for this team to be consistent NFC contenders.

No doubt in my mind!

Go Seahawks!!!!!!

Now expected to sign.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

And hopefully good against the run. I'm digging all the depth that they are putting together.

 

[Scout]

Tough as nails Hankins. Good addition if it is finalized.

 

[nanomoz]

Excellent. He made about $1.3 last year with the Cowboys. A bit more than that is absolutely worth it, this guy keeps bodies off of linebackers and safeties. The Cowboys run defense fell off of a cliff last year when Hankins got hurt.

 

[Atradees]

This is a Durde pick/recommendation. 2 years together

 

[Double Tribble]

Just signed.

Cowboys fans in the comments section of this tweet are pretty bummed they lost him. Or, it could just be about the overall direction of their team ?
