NFL Draft Eric Berry vs. Taylor Mays - Page 13

**RealSNR** · 09-14-2009, 06:08 PM

No, I'm not giving up on this season. This team isn't going to the playoffs. Plain and simple. But I'm still going to watch them and be encouraged by any progress I see. So if you want to bitch at me for starting a draft thread this early, go **** yourself in the eye with a sharp stick.

I've seen a couple Tennessee and USC games from last season. Taylor Mays looks MUCH better to me. He hits hard, wraps up, and is an athletic freak. Most boards I see though have Berry going before him. Granted, I'm not an NFL talent scout, but why is that?

Also, it would seem to me that this defense needs a big playmaker and that Taylor Mays is the perfect kind of athlete to fill that position versus a guy like Berry. Which one would be best for this team if we had an opportunity to draft either player this spring?

I was all about mays, but I am leaning toward berry now. I thought he looked good in the florida game. Still a lot of season left to see how it shakes out.

I think measurables are important, but the playmaking ability on the field and production trumps it. Also USC has a lot more defensive talent around him, or at least last year you had 3 linebackers almost go in the first round. Tennessee is not a slouch, but I don't think they have near the players.

They said sproles was too small and they said brees was too short

Both of these guys were on TV last night, but I didn't get to see either one due to other obligations. Did either one do anything noteworthy?

Mays made an outstanding, and I mean outstanding play on Jevan Best one-on-one in the flat. It was an incredible play.

That said, give me Berry. He's just as good of a tackler with better coverage ability.

I say Berry almost miss a half-assed shoulder bump tackle along the sidelines against Auburn last night.

I think we're arguing about a smoking hot blond and a smoking hot brunette in this thread.

do you see how much bigger mays looks than everyone else on the field
its kind of like how big Adrian Peterson looks out there

Here we go...

At 13 seconds Mays gets a pick and at 59 seconds he runs with Jahvid Best to the sideline and throws him out of bounds with 1 arm...

Not to mention he's doing this on a bum knee.
