He is probably better then Gallop right now physically, but Gallop has experience in this system. I think he will get more playing time in the next 2 weeks. If we have nothing to play for against Washington, I see Ceedee getting that Sunday off to rest up for the first round of the playoffs.

He’s faster and a better route runner than Gallup. No one in this team other than t y is getting deep in slay. Maybe possibly simi.

Don't know why that would be. Hilton's capable of making more than one play a game.

going to be interesting to see his impact after a few more games. Just watching his short sample of route running and baiting the defensive back into a penalty really shows some of what the other receivers are lacking

He’s worth the signing just to school the other receivers about what it takes to be a complete professional in this league.

I had a feeling this guy would be a nice asset to our team, especially as a #2 or #3 guy. I can even see him playing another year or two with us. He's a smaller guy, and those guys typically age better in the NFL. He doesn't have to be a number 1, just has to be one element.

But I really like what he brings to this offense, heading into the post season.

And the look on Sirianni's face when T.Y. made that catch was priceless. I can't stand him.

See, and this is the exact type of overblown reaction that happens for some fans.

And at what point do you finally admit that you were wrong about letting Cooper go?

Why are bashing his post? Seems like is showing common sense which is often lacking on the forum.

Are we jumping the gun on Hilton off one big catch and one game ?

at age 33, he'll be a spot player at the least .... likely a 4th receiver .. he won't be a No.2 here.
.and we dunno if he will continue a career or call it quits after this season.

He’s also a true deep threat. D had us older abd still gets deep. He seems to have most of his 4.36 speed left.

That’s a fair point and we don’t know what his production will be, but the one thing that we see already is his professionalism and experience in drawing that necessary penalty to sustain drives and his crisproute running.

3-4 catches a game and taking some heat off of CeeDee would meet my expectations……anything more than that is just gravy

If he curves a safety deep every gave, that’ll be enough to justify his signing.

Hilton was bought in to make 1 play every game thats it and thats what he did

Odell would be bought in to make plays just like CeeDee

He made two impactful plays. One was the 50 yard bomb and the other was an illegal contact on Darius Slay on 4th down.

I don't know if he wants to play a full season anymore, but for his first game back he looked explosive.

If TY all he does is go routes and forces a safety to his side of the field, I'm ok with that. Stretching the field is what we needed like TODAY, and we finally have it.
