Taylor Mays traded to the Bengals

Shop 49ers game tickets
He was the safety version of Vernon Gholston, and Ill admit I rode the bandwagon after his junior year. But after his senior year and the senior bowl practices it was obvious he couldn't cover anyone. He is a great kid and says all the right things, but he got replaced within a week by a UDFA from Marshall with limited experience.

Wish him the best of luck, but he showed more talent as a receiver with his toe touch td than as a safety.

I could see him as a Dan O'Brien decathlon type . . . Rio de Janeiro 2016!!!

A bag of jalapeno cheetos, a moon pie and aan RC cola...we won that trade.

We shoulda held out for the glass of milk, too. I'm telling ya, they would have folded.
Wait maybe he is part of a multiplayer trade where we get Palmer and they get our first rounder next year along with a player to be named.....errr......earlier (Mays)

First he wasn't given a chance early in camp. Trent made a huge blunder in sending out the email to the 31 teams because he was trying to get back at Sing. Our leadership in very unprofessional and green. We'll see how far Fangio and his defense last this season. I think Taylor handle himself with class and dignity. It shows that he comes from a high end family$. I for one wish him the best and I HOPE this comes back to haunt Trent and the rest of our administration. You don't treat people like this..even in business setting. You use the players strengths don't knock is weaknesses as an excuse.

Instead of worrying about Mays feelings you should be happy that the team is putting the best players on the field and not just holding on to him because he was a high pick. The guy couldnt cut it just saying...
Just seems to me that this would have been just fine to give us all your perspective..

I got no hate for the young man, but he was a terrible college player that we drafted way higher than his skill level dictated. HGH USC workout warrior, absolutely zero safety skills. No one wants a safety that doesn't wrap up and can't cover. That is no one except the bungles...
Will you vote for Micehlle BAchman also...

WTF does that right wing nutcase have to do with Mays not being any good?
Looks like I'm going to need to create a new account.
