Ike Taylor retires...

He was our best corner since Rod Woodson and would have been considered "great" had it been for his ability to catch footballs.  But it's the right time for him to go.  

I hear there's a good chance the Steelers will let Ike come back as a coach.

In the past, he said it might be time to transition to safety. I guess he didn't have it in him or the Steelers told him it wasn't going to happen. Hmmmm....

I think it was obvious to the organization (just like it was with Polamalu) last season- that he wasn't good enough to stay another year.
