Season 5, Episode 101 of The Terrible Podcast is now up and with David Todd back from his trip to New Orleans, we start the show off by talking about cornerback Ike Taylor announcing his retirement from football on Tuesday. We talk about where Taylor ranks on the Pittsburgh Steelers all-time best cornerback list as well as how enjoyable he was to listen to when he talked to the media.
Now that David is back, he gives his thoughts on safety Troy Polamalu retiring and we discuss whether or not he’ll having problems making it into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility. We also do a little ranking exercise that includes Polamalu, Taylor, James Harrison and Brett Keisel. The results aren’t surprising, however.
Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez was found guilty of first-degree murder on Wednesday, so we discuss that bit of news in addition to the rest of the Steelers news that is floating around uncovered since Friday.
We move on to discuss my latest mock draft and also take time to do another top-20 prospect exercise ahead of the 2015 NFL Draft. We give you some homework to do related to this.
As always, several other smaller talking points are mixed in throughout the show that are not highlighted here.
