That's because Mays doesn't play in the SEC.
Berry has better ball skills than Mays and over his collegiate career has been more of a playmaker. Now, that could be due to what each is asked to do.

How about we just draft a ****ing RT in a reasonable round (not the first) and keep Albert at LT, where he is still young with upside and could really blossom into one of the best LTs in the game?

And how about if we use that 1st rounder on a talented playmaker that could instantly turn this defense into something special?

I didn't say once in a lifetime. I said once in a generation. Further, albert doesn't profile as a rt. Further still, albert is definitely a fit at lt. He just needs to adjust to his new body and he will be back to last year form if not better.

Aaron Curry is re-entering the draft next year?

Albert is such a fit at LT that he wasn't even the left tackle on his college team. I like Albert. He's one of the only decent linemen we have but I think the rest of our O-Line is so shitty that people get an inflated sense of his talent. He is not Willie Roaf.

Omg. This thread was great. Then it had a stroke and is now full of incoherent babble.

You don't get playmaking safeties in the later rounds. You get them in the 1st 90% of the time.

On the other hand, the SUCCESSFUL teams get their offensive linemen anywhere BUT the 1st round.

You're looking at the roster and basically going position by position and saying "adequate" or "not adequate". That's not how a championship team is built. All positions don't have the same value, some have more impact than others.

Sorry, but if you think our safeties "aren't that bad" I gotta wonder what games you're watching.

Albert played left guard in college because eugene monroe didn't have the versatility to play guard. Albert has the potential to be one of the best left tackles in the game. But please keep grasping for straws.

What's worse - our safeties, our tight ends, our offensive line, our wide receivers or our linebackers?

I have no idea and I don't have the time to look it up. How many Super Bowl teams drafted safeties in the top 10?

Keep in mind that Ed Reed was #24, and Troy Polamalu was #16

BTW, the 2006 Chicago Bears. John Tait and Ruben Brown.

And how many picks did they spend on those guys?
