Former Steelers CB Mike Hilton is still available as an unsigned free agent. Should they call him?

Mike Hilton made a name, and a career, for himself with the Steelers for four years. While he found success after leaving for the Bengals, schematically, he fit best here. Meanwhile, the Steelers are still trying to emulate that archetype, without the same success.

While Hilton did not excel in man-to-man coverage, he did basically everything else well. He could play in zone, he could play the run, he could hit, he could tackle, and he could blitz.
