Just saw this pop up on CBS Sports. It's been discussed as possibly happening, but unsure if NO would stick with the two youngsters at SAF, until now. 

I wonder where Vaccaro fits financially, into the available SAF options on the FA market.  Just turned 27 years old and the kind of SS that would be in the mold of guys we prefer... Coleman/Mitchell/Harris. Not to mention having an NFCS opponent's insight to boot.

If there was a way we could land a DB combo of Fuller & Vaccaro in FA, our secondary would be insanely improved. The question is how much would that cost and is it possible. There are other options out there that could be had for cheaper. 

Thoughts on Vaccaro in Carolina?

Wasn't he benched a while back or was that Barron?

He was earlier this year in a move to roll Bell/Williams out there and he wasn't getting the job done. From what I read, they implemented a 3-man safety unit at times, though I'm sure our resident Saints fans could shed more light.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  I'm less comparing them as players and using him as a reference point.  I legitimately think Bryce is capable of being a better NFL QB than Kyler has been.  Kyler has no clutch gene and doesn't seem to have a grip on the locker room, or much love for the game.  Much different body types/strengths and weaknesses.   Crazy to think-- but Kyler is at year 7 as a 1.01...38-48-1 on his career, 0-1 in the playoffs. He's somehow played well enough to keep it going but crazy to think he's barely even touched the playoffs.  Hasn't done anything that special for the Cards.  That's what you don't want to be stuck in.  Cardinals are in softball purgatory with him.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      It's not analysis. There was no attempt to analyze anything or even convey new information at all.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      As to the topic, I've complained before about "superstar" mentality, i.e. the notion that you can win championships with one superstar player surrounded by a group of mediocre fill ins. It just doesn't work. The Manning-Brady rivalry was something of a showcase for that. The Colts general approach focused everything on Manning. The Patriots? Oh, they also had a superstar quarterback but they built a complete team, especially on the defensive side. This sort of thing is why I've argued many times that "system quarterback" should be to considered a description, not an insult. I know everybody loves the "MVP" athletic types, and they're fun to watch, but that's not necessarily the true path to consistent winning and championship glory.
