I'm honestly not sure why there isn't more talk of bring him back, he was a good guy in the slot and a willing tackler.

I really Liked Alexanders contributions last season, he covered well and tackled better then most of our D,  but if we add Hilton and let Alexander walk its a wash in my mind ...which I dont get. We need to be adding talent and not reacting to losses.

They are both slot guys, neither is playing on the outside. Hilton is a better player so it would be an upgrade to move from Alexander (who isn't under contract) to Hilton.

I would say they are are close to being the same tier of play but taking him from the Steelers would be an added plus.

Well be nice to get one right... so hopefully it is Hilton.

I hope that they do strike a deal with Hilton.  In addition to being decent in coverage, opposing QBs rated 60.2 throwing at him, he's also a playmaker.  Low YAC allowed, 7 INTs, 5 FRs, 32 PDs, and very effective as a blitzer.  24.15% success rate, 9.5 sacks, 23 QB hits, 30 TFL.


Putting this guy in the Slot CB role, and Chidobe Awuzi on the boundary to pair with Waynes, this team just MIGHT be able to field a competent secondary this season.

Same, I want Alexander back too. This would be another good signing though for sure. Love the Hendrickson signing.

Bring back Spain, Alexander and go get more OL help and Rankins.
