Earlier in the offseason, some talking heads over at the NFL Network took a stab at choosing the top five safeties of all time. While all of them included Troy Polamalu on their list (though none included Donnie Shell), all of them had the Baltimore Ravens’ Ed Reed ahead of the 2020 Hall of Famer for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Recently, the same panelists went ahead and ranked the top five cornerbacks of all time. It shouldn’t be a huge surprise that the Steelers were well-represented on this list as well, considering that they have three cornerbacks in the Hall of Fame (Jack Butler is the one you’re forgetting).
