As a change of pace, how do you think Mays could do in obvious passing situations? He could play OLB opposite Brooks. He's fast, quick, and loves to hit. I would have him alternate with Lawson as change of pace tactic. I think Mays would spin the heads of most R.T's. He may not start at the beginning of this season or all this next year. It could be an interesting role for him as a pass rusher. He's be O.K. against the run too if that happened while he was in. Any thoughts?
Parys, brooks, Laboy and even Lawson over Mays in pass rushing skills. I would love to see him blitz alot, but not from the OLB position.

ALL good points, BUT none of those guys you mention have the combination size AND speed of Mays. He could be and interesting guy off the edge. Your right though, he'd also be VERY effective off the edge at Safety too!

We could do a lot of blitzing with Mays from safety because he is an in the box type of safety. So it wouldnt tip the offense that he was blitzing if he we close to the line of scrimmage.

dumbest thing the team could do is try to make mays an undersized linebacker
Leave Lawson in and have him drop back into coverage and bring Mays on the safety blitz!... Genius!...

Thanx fellas... I think it utilizes both there talents and having them both on the field on passing downs will be huge...

I don't think he has the size and strength to toss blockers around like an outside linebacker would
