Good ST player, but those aren't hard to find. I am curious on why Zim released him so early, considering he knew what he was getting.
Zimmer cutting him loose like this does make me worry a bit, there definitely has to be something behind that.
I think having a good STer, solid backup LB (compared to the other guys we have there), and emergency backup S all in 1 player isn't a bad deal.
I don't think Mays is amazing by any means, but I'd at least look into re-signing him if I were the Bengals. I've been hearing a lot of how great of a team this is from people and that cuts are going to be so, so hard to make because of all the oozing talent, so why not look at a guy that's a familiar face and 3 roles in 1 roster spot? I don't think I'd be too upset in letting go a different bottom of the roster guy for a reasonable quality utility vet.
I'd like to know why Zim cut him though.
