Cowboys Report host Tom Downey is here with his suggestion for the top Cowboys free agent target left. It’s not the big name you might expect, like Asante Samuel, Stephon Gilmore, Nick Chubb or any of the (not great) defensive tackles. Instead, in light of Todd Archer’s ESPN Report about Dallas maybe looking at nickel corners, he’s got a veteran option suggested in former Bengals’ CB Mike Hilton.

Today's Cowboys Report audience questions:
- Most Comments gets another free entry into our George Pickens jersey raffle | Last Winner: Christian Orocio

The Pros for the Cowboys signing Mike Hilton in 2025 NFL Free Agency:
- Run Support
- Blitz Ability
- Experience
And here are the negatives:
- Age (31)
- Potential Contract Cost
- Coverage Concerns: The Bengals pulled Mike Hilton off the field at times in passing situation last season, unusual for a nickel

New Cowboys DC Matt Eberflus ran a LOT of nickel blitzes last season: 45% of his 5-man pressures came from the nickel/overhang spot to begin last season. Hilton has a proven track record of nickel blitzes! He’s got more career pressures from that spot than all the Cowboys’ players on the roster COMBINED.
