Jmo..

 

Or 

A hard hitting Safety on the backend or in the box gives your secondary a attitude and intimidation factor that affects passing games..  Pair that with a strong front 7 and you have a top 10 defense..  The dink and donk passing games Doesn't work when WR's are Affraid of the hit coming if they make A short catch.. You cause more fumbles in the running game.. When the RB worried about our Dline and LB's  doesn't see the safety coming from his back side... And Best of all teams get real weary about running the screen when your safeties can make jarring hits on the screener..

Just my opinion again. Since we lost Breeland.  Adding a hard hitting Safety like Vacarro and Mithcell is the 1st move to a improve secondary before the draft.. Add a center fielder like Reid and A CB in the 2nd round.. Now you have a imposing defense...

Don't know why people keep bringing him up

He is better than what we've had and what we have (nothing).

He has a history in our system and did fairly well when he was here.

He provides an attitude and spark on defense that we lack at times, especially on the back end.

I'm going to make this point once.. I know this player was bad here and that player was bad there.. But for some reason more than not Rivera system gets the best out of players.. Kurt Coleman was a JAG barly making roster in Philly and other places.. Dam near pro bowler here.  Mitchell was a 2nd round bust for the Raiders .. Pro bowler here.. Maybe we are lucky and our coach system gets the best out of dumpster players.. 

I want these players because they carry a attitude and have certain skills that fit what we need perfectly.. Mitchell is fast and a hitter... In Rivera system that's all he needs to do for us and he puts up near pro bowl numbers ..

Vaccaro is a 1st round talent.. A sure tackler and a solid in the box safety who can cover .. I can see a lot of things Rivera can do with him and Shaq on the field together..

Sign one of these two. Spend a high draft pick to address the other safety position. This, potentially, gives us the best safety tandem we've had in a while (ever?).

Totally agree..

I'm concerned the reason behind these players doing so much better here than elsewhere is now in Arizona. Wilks is a great DB coach.

Would love vaccaro , I do like mike Mitchell too . Both will get penaltys but they bring that fire that were missing in the secoundary . I'll take the penalty we need that hard hitting safety 

They bring a angry that other players feed off of a swagger younger player want to imitate.. Plus they make WR think before going up for balls.. You can see WR alligator arm passes once they got their bell wrung and these guys do that..

Rivera had a history of this in his years as a DC.. You can see the pattern of where ever Rivera went to be DC.  That teams defense was immediately top 10... Chicago to Philly to San Diego.. Wilkes is good but it's Rivera system..

I also like that when we bring the young players from the draft in .. If you have one of these guys they get their swagger from them... Mitchell attitude makes younger players want to hit and go all out like he does..

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
