It turns out that the 49ers' signing of Madieu Williams wasn't just about prompting Dashon Goldson to sign the team's contract offer. According to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter, the 49ers are actively shopping safety Taylor Mays to the point where they sent an email to the 31 other teams notifying them that Mays is available.
Mays, of course, was a second-round pick last season. With Goldson unsigned, he has been working with the starting group next to safety Reggie Smith, who has had a solid start to camp. However, on the first day of practice the safety starters were Smith and C.J. Spillman, who has since had to watch practice along with players like Alex Smith and Ray McDonald because he is a free-agent signee.
As you'll recall, the live feed into the 49ers draft room in April of 2010 seemed to show an argument between then-coach Mike Singletary and Trent Baalke, who was ostensibly running the draft, when the team's second-round pick was approaching. It seems now as if Baalke wasn't too keen on drafting Mays at that time.
Mays was the source of tension in the team's locker room last year. When veteran safety Michael Lewis, who started the first three games, learned that the team planned to give Mays more playing time at his expense, he felt betrayed and quit the team. Mays started the next six games but began to struggle and was replaced in the starting lineup by Smith.
Would the 49ers be able to find a trading partner? Mays was passed over by his college coach, Pete Carroll, in the first round last year, which left Mays fuming. He and Carroll have since made up. The most obvious landing spot is Minnesota where Singletary is the linebackers/assistant head coach.
Williams, who signed a one-year deal yesterday with the 49ers, played in Minnesota last year.
