#27TheDominator Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I dont think hes a bust. I think he needs a change of scenery and some better coaches, this isnt Vernon Gholston. It's Vernon Gholston circa 2009. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicious89x Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the 49ers sent out a "mass email" to the other 31 teams letting them know S Taylor Mays is available for trade. The Niners are giving up on Mays after one season. The 49th pick in last year's draft, Mays is what we thought he was: A straight-line athlete with no prayer of being an asset in coverage. They might salvage a late-round draft pick in a best case scenario. Perhaps Mays' old college coach, Pete Carroll, would be interested in giving him a look in Seattle. The Seahawks' current projected starting strong safety is Kam Chancellor. This kid is a beast. With the right coaching he could be the next Ed Reed. With the right coaching, can I be the next visajets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMC Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 They should've turned him into a LB. I wouldn't mind putting a waiver claim on him and do just that. Have him be a rush LB. The guy is 6'3" and at least 230lbs. Get him up into the 240s and see how much speed he still has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darrellegivesmeaboner#24 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 If the price is a late round draft pick, then I do not see how this is a bad idea. Mays has a ton of athletic ability, and with the right coaching can be a good player in this league. Worst case scenerio we trade for him and he is still useless as a safety, he would still be a valuable contributor on Special Teams. Trading for Mays could be a very nice manuevre, and can help us fill a hole at S/Special Teams with Ihedigbo potentially leaving... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicious89x Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 If Rex showed interest you might have a point. So when Rex doesn't make a move on him in 24 hours will you please STFU? This is a NYJETS messageboard where we we talk football. Stop whining. NYJETS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Anyone who followed USC football knows the type of player Taylor Mays is. I think Pete Carrol probably followed it fairly closely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visajets Posted August 4, 2011 Author Share Posted August 4, 2011 Regardless of what Carroll did how many of you have been bitching about Eric Smith and Brodney Pool? Heres a chance to bring in a young player for late round draft pick and let Rex and Thurman coch him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, but I'm not trading a pick for him unless it's a 7th (Kerry Rhodes compensation). I prefer waiver claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the idea of putting Mays at LB, but not for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergen Jet Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I'd pony up a 7th for him but since Visa is going to let Rex and Tanny decide I am just going to let this one go and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Big and fast is nice. It's something to consider, but all the coaching in the world can't change stiff. He seems stiff. He seemed stiff in college and IIRC he was ultra stiff running drills at the combine. Worth a look for ultra-cheap, but big and fast does not equal sacks. Guys like Drew Coleman and Ray Mickens were faster and not stiff. Sure they could be blocked, but they were a hell of a lot harder to hit than a guy like Mays.
