- Keith Hamilton
I was very tempted to put Hamilton on this list because he was quite a productive interior lineman. Twelve seasons in Giant blue and 63 sacks, and I’m not sure he ever really got the credit he deserved. He had two double-digit sack campaigns—10 in 2000 and a career high 11.5 in his sophomore 1993 season—but he hovered around double-digit territory a few times and was a consistent force along the line.
While he’s known more for his pass-rushing skills, he was also a serviceable defender against the run, plugging holes and helping the Giants to two top-ten run defense finishes in his career.
Hamilton may not garner the same attention and praise as some of the other guys on this list, but he was a good Giant and really solid defensive lineman.
