Troy Polamalu calls it a career


Recommended Posts

He's about to be same age as Tillman (Polamalu turns 34 in ten days). We should sign him up

Polamalu is also only a year older than Cotchery and Roman Harper (who both turn 33 this year)

Even if he wasn't RETIRED, Polamalu looked dreadful last year.

I would not be surprised if he had some bad moments but he looked awesome vs the Ravens on primetime during the regular season last year, which was the only Steelers game I watched sober. Polamalu finished last year rated the 9th best S against the run by PFF with a +5.0, tied with All-Pro Devin McCourty of the Patriots

Take that rating with a grain of salt. That's all that I'm saying.

    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
