Taylor Mayes

This is my second time watching him this season but he doesn't look very sharp. I completely agree with the commentators about him not playing angles right. He's always looking to make the big hit though. Very landry-esque

and most importantly, he plays for usc.

i was waiting for to see that "sub 4.3" speed in action when he was chasing the wr from behind or trying to beat the RB to the goaline. but of course it never happened.

when you compare his media hype to his actual on the field performance, mays has to rank as one of the most overrated college football players in recent memory.

for the most part, mays has taken a beating on the MSB

He's just like Laron. Big hitter, freak athlete, but gets out of position and lacks ball skills.

Taylor Mayes is Roy Williams revisited.

Great hitter, great vs. the run, liability in coverage.
