I could see teams possibly trying to trade up to take Vaccaro and our spot would be a good place to do so.

With Cooper/Warmack likely off the board, I can see Dallas taking either of the two safeties.

Why, are the Saints likely to take a Safety?

What makes Vaccaro interesting is that he is the most versatile safety in the draft. He played both strong and free safety as well as routinely lined up in the slot in nickel coverage. In some instances he played corner as well. He gives a team the most versatility to move him around and use him in multiple places especially if a starter goes down at another position. He is built like a strong safety with great run coverage skills but has good coverage skills frequently playing free safety

What is the biggest concern? He ran a relatively slow 40 time at 4.6. He also had some off field issues.

    • I agree. I’d make the move because I don’t see us sniffing the playoffs and let’s be honest TMac, Legette and Coker better be our top 3 future. If they aren’t and we need Thielen to replace one of them, then we need to draft yet another 1st round WR, SMH. Suffice it to say, Thielen isn’t good enough to get us into the playoffs so let’s get the young guys starting so we know if they aren’t good enough. We still have so many assumptions about whether players are who we need them to be that holding onto Thielen for 3-7 wins isn’t worth passing on a mid round pick (3rd to 5th/swaps). We’ve had some success with later round picks/UDFAs and need depth.
    • If you move Thielen I think you almost have to keep Renfrow. You need some sort of veteran presence in the locker room and Renfrow would be good insurance in the slot. I'm sure we have Coker penciled in to start there but you also have to be keeping Coker in the back of your head as XL insurance on the outside if he doesn't step up. If he flounders again, I wouldn't wait too awfully long to replace him with Coker outside and slide Renfrow into the slot and keep it moving. 
    • Playing the same role is different than having the same style.  Cam Newton and Drew Brees both played QB but arent the same type in any way.
