49ers sent out a mass email this afternoon to teams around the league to try and trade safety Taylor Mays.

when the guy came out i was very high on him. I wouldn't mind giving up a 5-7 for a guy with so much upside. It would allow godfrey or martin to move back to corner if need be. it's also possible the guy could play linebacker at his size. With 4.2 speed and a crushing hitter could be a diamond in the ruff.

haven't heard much from him since he was drafted by the 49ers,but he would instantly become the fastest player on our team. what say you...........

p.s can some moderator edit my title. left out the ers on 49ers.

I like the idea. When I went to practice, I saw Godfrey working either 1 on 1 with the DBs coach or doing things on his own a LOT during down time before practice and during special teams stuff when he wasn't busy doing something. I'd love to move him back to corner. I think he'd be much more natural there. Mays would become a monster in this defense, since it seems blitzing safeties is part of the scheme (from what I saw).

like the raiders and vikings wanting to give away randy moss???? one mans trash is another mans...

It could be a personnel thing in San Fran. Maybe Mays has a problem with the coaches or some teammates there. Doesn't mean he is a bad guy. We don't know the details, and I think it is only reasonable, until we know more, to assume that whatever it is isn't major and doesn't indicate that Mays is a problem guy.

If he can't find a place on an atrocious 49ers secondary, what makes you think he'd do anything here. There must be a reason they are looking to get rid of him, he's either got character issues, or just plain terrible, neither of which are too appealing.

He'll never be a safety in the NFL. Someone should take the Thomas Davis route and make him a WLB, could be great there.

Realistically though, he'll probably be a career ST guy. I've heard he's really good on ST though. Who knows.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
