The Niners and Cowboys wanted Vaccaro badly

You honestly believe they had Reid rated higher than Vaccaro? I don't. Not for one minute. And Jim Harbaugh conveniently saying it AFTER he picked Reid doesn't make me believe it. Of course Harbaugh is gonna say Reid is the best. He also said Michael Crabtree has the best hands he has ever seen. Come on man, open your eyes. They wanted Vaccaro. Everybody knows he was the uncontested top rated safety in the draft. NOBODY had Reid rated higher than Vaccaro. Not even the blindest LSU fans.

Absolutely incorrect. Many teams have players rated differently based on a fit with their team or even just their grading. You have no clue how teams had players rated, so you cannot say that "NOBODY" had Reid rated higher than Vaccaro. We are only privy to a few draft "experts" and hundreds or thousands of fans who are draft bloggers. We don't have the knowledge of the months/years of scouting that each team has on a player. That can easily be proven by the fact that there were teams had Ryan Leaf rated higher than Peyton Manning in 1998.
