Giants 90-man roster preview: Big year upcoming for Big Hank

Johnathan Hankins is entering the danger zone for New York Giants defensive tackles. No, that doesn't mean anything bad is about to happen to Big Hank. It means the 2012 second-round pick is in the final year of his rookie contract and not once this century have the Giants drafted a defensive tackle and re-signed him when his rookie deal expired.

In fact, you have to go all the way back to the 1992 selection of Keith Hamilton in the fourth round to find a drafted defensive tackle who spent more than the first four years of his career with the Giants.
