Vaccaro - The SS who can cover

Vaccaro - The SS that can cover

The NFL right now barely has any strong safeties that can actually lock down in man to man. Most are either in the box beasts or decent in zone. The way the NFL is now you need a guy who can lock down in man to man. He shut down Tavon Austin so I think that dismisses any speed concerns. You need a SS that can shut down the TE for you all game and especially on those crucial 3rd downs.

You guys complain about Harper not being that good in man but you get mad when when the Saints draft someone who can be a shutdown man safety! This type of SS is very rare and hard to find. In the box safeties and zone cover safeties are pretty common but man coverage safeties that can shut down a TE can help with fixing a defense immensely.

Kenny is a great player, the only reason his INT # is not that high is because he was used in man where you are rarely looking at the QB. On average, man coverage gets you way less picks than zone coverage. This kid is most likely our solution at stopping Tony, Greg Olsen and Dallas Clark. Ill take someone who can shut down TEs and elite slot WRs like Tavon anyday.

Kenny has top notch ball skills; he was recruited as a WR. It's just that you can't really expect that many picks when you have him in man coverage so much.

I expect him to be an All Pro and the best SS in the league in a few years. There are not many SSs like Vaccaro that can actually cover TEs in the NFL right now.
