    Since Mel Blount and Rod Woodson, who have been the best two Steeler cornerbacks since then:

    Ike Taylor
    Joe Haden
    Chad Scott
    Dewayne Washington
    Deshea Townsend
    Others?

    They were always affectionately called Burnt Toast and Cockring by their loving fans. :lolol:

    You just made me think

    J T Thomas sat near me at games and I would see him in the club area

    But now I’m thinking I haven’t seen him for a season or two

    Hmm

    Corner has never really been a great area of strength. After the two you mentioned there is Ike Taylor, and possibly Joe Haden.

    I put Chad Scott and Washinton into the ok to good category for what they were asked to do (play zone in the zone blitz scheme). Townsend was an ok nickel corner imo.

    As for the guy you want to line up against the #1 for the other team, i'm only really putting Mel, Rod, or Ike in that category. Haden and Ramsey have been serviceable though.

    Agreed he played strong safety mostly.

    I guess he should go on the list with Rod as he made the probowl playing corner
