(Sure, I know there's an old thread about Vaccaro, but Im not going to use the "search button" and I dont care.)

I have seen very little of Vaccaro's college career, but have only heard good things about the kid. I have heard that he's one of the better cover guy in the upcoming draft and can cover almost anyone. "CBSsports" is a source that I like to use and trust. I just got done checking and they have this kid listed as their no.9 overall on their big board right behind Star. How good is this kid????

FS is a really big need but I dont think anyone on this forum would want to take one over an OL/DL. Though, last year Rivera did have Barron ranked higher than Kuechly and saw that FS was a huge need. If Kenny is a notch better than Barron, do we take him at 14 as BPA?

Your thoughts?

Nah. This year we have a football guy making the decision (not Hurney). One that knows the value of the big guys. Even if Vaccaro is better than Barron I'd rather the first (if not first two) pick be a trench player. I don't know much about him either, but even if Eric Berry was in this draft I'd still rather we spend the pick on someone over 300 lbs.

i think he is a decent prospect, and he has shown the ability to cover guys in the slot and TEs as well as play the deep center fielder. my knock on him is he can over pursue plays which allows him to take bad angles on open field tackles. seen some players stick their foot in the ground and make him miss on several acsions.

If we take a DT in the 1st and there was a clear BPA Safety available in the 2nd I wouldn't mind it though. Would still prefer a WR or OL, but we do probably need a Safety. To be honest, I'd love Rambo in the 4th.

Yea I agree.

I was just surprised by how high cbs had him ranked.

I also love the idea of building the trenches. Especially someone on the Dline.

Even though Vaccaro is listed very high on their board, Im not sure if he'll be taken that high. He may even fall into the 2nd where I would grab him in a heart beat.

If we could grab Rambo in the 4th, Id be very very happy.

      I noticed Canales commented on King having a live arm. Weinke coached him and said he could make any throw an NFL team would ask him to make.  His mechanics and general process of throwing looks a little wonky to me though. Haven’t really zoomed in on that though to say more.     Brazzell, his hands look at least decent to me and of course his speed is there.   Love his balance.  Like a cat, always comes down on his feet. Not his butt.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      By strato · Posted

      If Veabel is the father the name, unfortunately…. well you are looking at Mike Jr.    I feel bad for the husband And the kid though. Especially the kid who had no hand in anything and is just a victim.   Most people would develop some pretty big issues around the chaos of finding out nothing you were told about your father was true and you have been calling the wrong guy Dad.  And trusting your mother, well that is over too.     She should be permanently burned as a reporter or rumor reporter. Whatever she I was.    Who can trust anything she says?   Vrabel has outed himself as a total phony. No credibility whatsoever.

      My worry is about his concussion. Concussions.  Last thing we need is for him to  be like Jewel. I am looking forward to him benefiting from better players around him in the defense.  Defending QBs under a little more pressure than the last few years.  Better coverage defense in front of him in the middle.
