Would anyone get excited about Taylor Mays?

I remember when Mays was the poo in college, then he had a crappy senior year and his stock went down. I don't think it would be a fair trade unless we got atleast a second round pick. Do we really need a safety with Pugh coming up and Godfrey and Martin in their prime?

Sports radio in SF seems to think there is growing interest in a Clausen for Mays (+ maybe a late rounder) trade given the dismal QB situation and the fact that Mays doesn't fit Harbaugh's defensive scheme.

Aside from the fact that Harbaugh hates Clausen's guts I could see this happening with DA a more than competent backup and the need to shore up the defensive secondary.

First off, i dont think Harbaugh hates Clausen's guts and if he did he wouldnt trade for him and 2nd if a trade did happen, i dont think a pick should be involved and third, a Mays for Clausen trade makes perfect sense. First off, Mays has a ton of potential and his size and speed for a safety is almost unheard of, though he needs to work on his covering and for the 49ers, they need a QB and want to get rid of Mays.

the trade really doesn't make sense. panthers have no room for mays, he wouldn't solve any issues if he was brought in, clausen needs to be sold high, not lowish like he would be right now. the growing interest the radio show talked about is surely that of radio listeners, not anyone involved with the two clubs.

Sweet.

So he's a safety. Why are folks suggesting trades for positions we don't need? How about a DT or CB, or even a WR?

Normally i would agree, but Taylor Mays is very fast and huge for a safety, we do need a WR and it bothers me that no team has signed Mark Clayton. even if he isnt healthy yet, i think he could be a good 2nd WR for a team needing one. Anyways, i dont mind a trade for Mays because he has size and speed in a safety that is almost unheard of, though he does need to work on his covering.

I was laughing for three pages..a second for Claussen...AND Taylor Mays?! He would be incredible in the defensive scheme as a blitzing safety or as a weakside linebacker hybrid.

Wow that td in preseason week 1 erased all of the 2010 season!!

If this is a real trade in the works..Panthers do this yesterday!

You mean the second rounder that the 9ers are trying to trade after just a year?

Is this really where we're taking this, folks?

Now I know there is a dearth of talent on the roster, but Mays?

That guy couldn't cover Grady Jackson on a seam route.

Kinda like our bust of a QB. Id rather have Mays develop in a box SS/ Lber like Thomas Davis was in his first few.

4.3 speed with a massive frame and decent character guy..why not. He would be dominant on special teams.

Claussen will just offer weird stares from the sideline as Newton is doubling pickles TD total in week 3.
