Default Re: Safety

If we want Vaccaro, we have to take him in Round 1. That would be fine, but I'd rather have P. Thomas. I'd really like to see us do something for our offense in Round 1. Kahseem Greene is a must for me. I hope we grab him and Thomas in Round 2. Between the two of them, we'd get excellent leaders and great football players who can both play the run and excel in coverage. Thomas actually looks better in run support than Vaccaro, who is better in coverage. But Thomas certainly isn't bad in coverage.

Where are people getting that Vacarro is better in coverage? If he is so good in coverage then he must have horrible hands. Thomas had more picks in a single season than Vacarro had in his 4 year career. As well Thomas had four more passes defensed than Vacarro for their careers and Thomas only played three seasons due to a broken leg.

I don't know. The thing that makes me nervous about Vaccaro is the number of absolute whiffs I've seen him make in run support. I think it was Randle who absolutely humiliated him.

I will tell you it's not as good as people who are throwing around "he plays with attitude and desire."

Mathieu's measurables at the combine will blow all other safety's out of the building.

Starting with 5'9" & 174.2 lbs.

Tyrann would totally be able to shut down Andrew Hawkins.
