Should the Steelers re-sign cornerback Mike Hilton?

One of the most fascinating improvements on the Pittsburgh Steelers in recent years has come in the back end of their defense. After decades of suffering through sub-par cornerback play, Pittsburgh finally appeared to possess one of the deepest defensive back groups they have had in ages.

Traditionally, Colbert is a GM who likes to build his team through the draft and invest in the players who began their careers in Pittsburgh. In recent years, however, Colbert has taken a new approach.
