Kenny Vaccaro on the rise FS Texas

Recommended Posts

Vaccaro is on the rise as I was listening to a scout rave about him being like an Earl Thomas/Eric Berry type guy who could fill in at Corner with fluid hips and agility. The radio host brought up Eric Reid and from what he saw he said theres a lot of false steps and he sometimes will hesitate to make the tackle if he is not in position to do the highlight/blow up tackle.

Two other prospects he loved and said have shot up to possible top 15 status were the LTs out of Oklahoma and Central Michigan. In one on one drillS they were just dominant.

Sometimes if the need is there and you have to have a guy you take him where your at.

Id like to have Vaccaro and we need him but he probally will not be there in the second. LT, WR, DT beast player availible agong those 3positions..if all are gone then Vaccaro would be a great play.

Nice!

Fisher looks very physical out there. An automatic top10 pick.

For Vaccaro, I'm not a scout or expert but watching HL of his game vs Kent St and OSU, he's a very good coverage guy. Hes a solid tacklers when he does tackle but at times he takes very poor angles. Still he should be a top15

Im honestly starting to doubt he's on the board when we pick. His stock is starting to skyrocket.

Wanna bet? The dude that made the ridiculous top 5 claims is the same dude that had Manti Te'o as his #1 pick this season and had Alameda Ta'amu in his top 10 all last season. Ta'amu isn't even on a team right now lol.

Vaccaro takes terrible angles and is a liability in coverage. He is extremely overrated due to this very weak safety class. There are much much much better value picks in the 2nd or 4th round where we are lookin for a safety. There are a handful of other safeties that I'd much rather have in my last line of defense.

Big name. Big school. Overrated.

The last two safeties to go top 5 were,

Eric Berry and Sean Taylor. Even the highly touted Kenny Phillips didn't crack the top 20.

Anyone who thinks that Vaccaro is in the same category as these guys needs to kindly get the fug off the Internet and never comeback.

I like Vaccaro in terms of his coverage ability, guy just can't tackle. Wouldn't take him at #14 but if we're able to move back in the 20's I wouldn't mind so much. I really don't understand the hype he's getting, think it's just because there's no #1 safety in this years class complimented by the fact there are a good number of average safety prospects.
