Would anyone get excited about Taylor Mays?

I would take Taylor Mays and make him play multiple positions here to increase his playing time. He can backup CG at Safety and give him some breathers but I would make him also play LB here. He has sideline to sideline speed, would likely be the fastest LB in the NFL and he can hit. We could have him blitz every now and again like they never did with him at USC.

I see him becoming decent to good at one or two positions and give us depth. Would you want to keep grooming a young QB to be our backup year after year? With a lack of playing time once Newton takes over full time we may never get anything from Clausen when he becomes a FA down the road.

Mays could be Thomas Davis 2.0, but I don't think this trade will happen. If it was going to happen it would have happened already.

I disagree. I think a lot of people are looking to see how Clausen performs in the preseason. The 49rs signed McNown for the league minimum fresh off a high school coaching gig. He could be dropped like a bad habit if a better option came around. They've already said that Alex Smith has "distanced" himself from the rookie so he is not an option either. I really don't see Harbaugh winning the Luck sweepstakes out there... division too weak to lose every game.

Consider the team letting him go. They have the worst secondary in the league, and they don't want him. They also sent out an email saying he was available for trade, which lowers his value considerably. If they wanted Clausen, there would have to be a considerably high draft pick involved. I'm talking a 2-3. Considering it's going to be a top 5, I don't think it would happen. And if they did acquire him, it would be to convert him to a LBer, because safety is just never going to work with that guy. He could probably learn a lot from TD though.
