Taylor Mays On Trade Block

i would like to pick him up.

So you'd rather make a big splash by signing some washed up free agent with nothing left to prove?

I've always thought that guy was pretty good. I know we won't get him, but he is young and just a second year player which could entice Holmgren and Heckert. I think that'd be a nasty group of safeties with Mays and Ward. Put Young and Haden at CB. I think we'd be set.
There's no doubt they're asking for a first, which we have two of.
Ward and Mays are like the dream team for young safeties. That would be ridiculous. I'm not normally for big trades nor do I condone getting rid of draft picks, but I'd throw in everything but the kitchen sink for Mays.
The problem is we already signed Young. I can all but guarantee Mays will not be a Brown.
EDIT: I swear to God, if Mays ends up in New England or playing for Gang Green, I'll shit a whole pile of bricks.
Same if he lands in the Pitts.

lol. What? Taylor Mays hasn't been that good in SF. Why else do you think the guy is on the block. A Ward/Mays tandem also wouldn't be a safety dream team. What land of delusions do you reside? It would be a waste to go hard at Taylor Mays. Giving up a first or in your case two firsts would be highway robbery.
AKA SNATCH98 or Rorbotron. The boards glorious admins decided to get cute and change my name to "homotron" Classy group of people. (Lost a bet with Columbus king and got banned for a month) -
Taylor Mays is terrible im glad we took Ward over him,theres no wonder San Fran is trying to trade him he cant cover for shit.
The highest id even consider would be a 4th and people are talking about a 1st are you serious??? He couldnt even crack the lineup for the Niners and you name there starting safteys.

I never said we give up two firsts. I said we have two firsts, therefore giving up a first rounder wouldn't leave us overly xxxxed.
C'mon Homo, you're better than that.
I live in the land where Taylor Mays is 6'3, 220 lbs, and runs a sub 4.4 40. In some cases, a sub 4.3. He's got raw athletic talent, and with the right coaching can be a freak.
He's got Adrian Wilson size, Ed Reed speed and he hits like Sean Taylor.

Problem is he cant cover worth a damn, he may be a physical freak but if you cant cover he might wanna consider moving to Linebacker..He couldnt make an impact in SF and they now have two new safteys, that really says something.
-
Again I watched him his whole rookie year and he was horrible. If you want a guy who is fast and won't be around the ball then he's ur guy...
if football was all about being fast and combines the raiders would win every year...
That's it trade him to oakland, there just dumb enough to take him

Taylor Mays is terrible im glad we took Ward over him,theres no wonder San Fran is trying to trade him he cant cover for shit.
The highest id even consider would be a 4th and people are talking about a 1st are you serious??? He couldnt even crack the lineup for the Niners and you name there starting safteys.

He did crack the lineup for the 9ers, he started 6 games at safety. He replaced Michael Lewis, a former second round pick. He was opposite Dashon Goldson, who could be a pretty decent safety.
I did all that without looking anything up. So, yes...I can name their starting safeties.

The reason he's on the block isn't because his lack of coverage abilities. It's because San Fran never wanted to get him in the first place. He was a Singletary pick, through and through. Now Singletary is gone, and Mays isn't wanted.
A rookie got one year to make an impact and is now on the trading block.
So, by that reasoning, we should trade Hardesty, because he is a physical freak who can't stay healthy ever. Same for Shaun Lauvao.

49ers SS Taylor Mays lost his starting job after just five games during the season because he struggled in pass coverage.
This was the book on Mays coming out of USC. Matt Maiocco of CSN Bay Area suggests that, "It might be that it's asking too much of him, at his size, to change direction and hang in coverage against NFL receivers." According to Pro Football Focus, opponents completed a whopping 81.3 percent of their passes and averaged 20.2 yards on completions into Mays' coverage. He created just one turnover (a Week 5 forced fumble) in 16 games.

I understand his coverage skills leave something to be desired. He had a hard time covering NFL receivers as a rookie. As. A. Rookie.
But, once again, not the reason he's being traded. A contributing factor? Maybe. But by all accounts it's because of the firing of Singletary.
Not many teams look to trade a rookie simply because of a bad rookie season. Especially not ones drafted in the first two rounds.

I wasn't aware it was the safety's job to cover.

I would MAYBE take a flyer on this guy for a 6th or 7th round pick, but Timmy what everyone is saying is just right. The same problems that made him fall in the draft became apparent last year. I do completely agree he deserves more than one season to get it together, as does any player. But it should concern you the same problems he had all through college just got worse in the NFL last year. He hasn't shown me at all that he's going to figure it out. If they thought he was worth it, they'd keep him.

He sucks, I don't want him if we have to give up more than a 5th. Fact is there is a reason this guy fell last year in the draft and there is a reason that he is being traded now. It doesn't matter if he was a pick by the last coach, if he had any kind of ability they wouldn't be trying to trade him!

Whoa- if the guy was a playah, it wouldn't matter who drafted him. We're unloading this stud saftey because our ex-coach drafted him? Unlikley. It's damn near unheard of to unload a guy drafted that high after one year. He has to suck about as bad as David Veikune.
Physical freaks don't necessarily do well in the NFL. If track speed was all that mattered for a WR, Reynaldo Nehemiah would be in the HOF.
