Hilton in man coverage beyond 10 yards is worrisome to me.  That said it is impossible to not like Mike.

I disliked him just fine until 2021.

Taking him from the Steelers might be the best thing about him.

I just think we will see a lot of Hilton until his contract is up, but cannot disagree. Dax has the talent to become the best Slot Corner in the NFL.

And when he blitzes he gets there in a heart beat.
He is going to be a force.

He is crazy fast and explosive and was a great tackler in college. I think Dax will be a force myself.

Hilton is so short he has to rely on fantastic technique and athleticism to make up for his limitations, love the guy but Dax has 
everything to be great and not have any limitations.

Mike Hilton this season:

Yes, he was great in coverage last season, love Mike. He hasn't started falling off yet, don't expect Dax to take his spot completely.

But as far as big TE's and big WR's I think we should use Dax there much more now with Mike's limitations size wise.
