Great article and spot on, it basically says:

PRO's
-ignore the 40yd dash time, vaccaro's athleticism is 2nd to none
-he can absolutely lay the wood
-he is a shutdown man coverage guy, they use him shutting down tevon austin and ryan swope as examples

CON's
-zone coverage, saying they didnt play a lot of it in Texas but has the intelligence to be good at it
-maturity, saying he had some maturity issues in the past but hasnt anymore
-deep angles in run support, said he isnt good at taking deep angles when playing far back at FS and they say its mainly because he played SS at texas and was rarely playing far back, his strength was to play at the LOS and make plays in the run game or shut down WRs and TE's
