Top 25 Bengals for 2023: Is Mike Hilton the most underrated piece of the defense?
Bengals cornerback Mike Hilton isn't shy of the spotlight.
From coining the infamous "Burrowhead" term to his other memorable quotes, Hilton has backed up his talking on the field as one of the best slot cornerbacks in the NFL.
More remarkable than his ascension as a former undrafted free agent is the fact that he's been able to provide value for over seven seasons as he enters his third season in Cincinnati. Lou Anarumo values Hilton's play just as he does with all of his cornerbacks.
Hilton's leadership, wittiness and hard-hitting plays land him at No. 13 on the Top 25 Bengals for 2023. How much higher should Hilton be though? Is No. 13 an adequate ranking for the veteran corner?
The Strictly Stripes crew looks at Hilton's status and value in the defensive backfield and contrasts that to other defenders on the list.
This podcast features Mohammad Ahmad and Andrew Gillis.
