    He was past his prime in 2013, he was a much better player earlier in his career.

    I never thought he was great even in his prime, his peers never voted him to a probowl, and he cost us some games with his bone headed habit of getting PIs, I guess you all saw something in him I never saw, I was glad he went away when he did finally..............

    He was never great, but he was a good cover CB in the Steelers system, he couldn't catch which is why he probably never made a Pro Bowl. He also had a big interception in the Super Bowl against Seattle.

    If Ike taylor had hands to catch the ball he would of been to multiple probowls in his prime. You guys who are bashing him only remember when he got old and fell off a bit.
    He was the best cover corner on our 2008 and 2010 defense!
