No.. they were drafted a year or so later... you said Troy brought aspects never seen when he had contemporaries doing the same.... Your post was not factual, that’s all
Bart Scott says it's 'disrespectful' to compare Troy Polamalu to Ed Reed

Reed’s greatest abilities were intangibles like instinct & IQ. Brady & Belicheck talked constantly about how Reed baits them into the wrong read then knows exactly where the wrong throw was going.

Anyone feel Rodney Harrison is underrated?
The way we think about Dont'a Hightower making clutch playoff plays for the Patriots of this era, Rodney was that dude for NE from 2003-2008.
When he was out the defense wasn't the same e.g. late in Super Bowl XXXVIII or for the 2006 AFC championship game.
He had so many key plays in their back to back SB run. I truly believe had Rodney not picked Peyton on that first Colts drive the game would have come down to the wire or even have been won by Indy.
Rodney also had a key interception the week before against the Titans.
Also his pick six in Pittsburgh in the AFC championship the next year was a backbreaker. And then of course his two interceptions in Super Bowl XXXIX.
Go to 23:47 or so
The downside for Rodney is he was posterized by David Tyree@BucciMane
Rodney was that dude, but not on the level of these two

Troy was hurt in that game. But played because it was the super bowl

Like who? The best strong safeties of the 2000’s were Dawkins $ Troy. Troy was more versatile than Dawkins or any SS of the 90’s. You are arguing just to argue
