Who did you mark out for?

6'3, 230lbs, ran a 4.43 (really a ~4.30) with a 41" vert and 10'5" broad? Just a freak.

Somewhere in the back of my head I still think he could have worked out if they had just immediately moved him full-time to LB, but the Bengals were still enamored with the extra heavy slower LBs over speed. I think he was just born about 6 years too early. Much like how Burfict was born about 10 years too late.

Yeah, I was excited for Mays myself. Like you said, just born at the wrong time, same with Burfict who was the opposite for me before we got 
him. Didn't want to draft Taze with his problems, but was for him as an UDFA to give him a chance, he became one of my favorite Bengals even
if he was dirty, loved the way be got into the stealer's heads...
