Is Taylor Mays gonna be your new Vernon Davis?
As dumb as the pick was I've learned my lesson in putting too much strength into a single argument. Taylor Mays wasn't good enough for us (atleast half the webzone) with the 17th pick because __________ (insert erason ) just cause he was drafted in the 2nd round doesn't mean he can finally do the things he couldn't do before. You can look at "value" all you want. But if you didn't like him as a starter before you still shouldn't like him as a starter now. He's the same player. There were still safeties on the board that alot of people would have rathered have.
Screw that "value" BS! It's like buying a brand name item on sale just because it's brand name and on sale. Not because it's better than the "generic" brand you can get at the same price and has the ability to do more.
I get your argument about value i guess, but ultimately it doesn't matter at all what we the fans think. For all we knew on the 49ers draft board they had Taylor Mays directly behind Iupati, and had Iupati been taken then we could have gladly taken Mays at #17.
But hey if you're not a Mays fan then you wouldn't have wanted him with any pick. I can see why people hate the pick and also love the pick.
