Guy won DPoY just a few seasons ago, he might be a step slower at 31 then he was at 28 but not enough that he isn't the #1 corner on the team.

Maybe, I think we are undervaluing Awuzie and Hilton. While Hilton isn’t the “1” he often locks down the other teams “1”, due to his position.

CATCH 22
While the Bengals offense is built with young players by way of the draft, the defense was built mostly through free agency.

“ Looking for a fresh start, former Dallas Cowboy cornerback Awuzie found himself in the Queen City and has been a star ever since.
To date, No. 22 has recorded 53 solo tackles, two interceptions and 14 passes defended in 14 games.
In terms of PFF grades, Awuzie comes in as the highest grade AFC cornerback and the second-highest overall grade at 83.4. Awuzie's stardom shines brightest in coverage; he ranks third in the league with an 84.2 grade.
Joining Awuzie on the Second Team is Darius Slay of the Philadelphia Eagles; the First Team is made up of LA Ram Jalen Ramsey and Atlanta Falcon A.J. Terrell.”
