Other that playing on a soft defense, I don't think Vaccaro is a bad player. The reasoning for so many of us to not like this pick is pretty well said by Yasinkas:
If we weren't transitioning to a 3-4, I'd like this pick a lot more.

New Orleans is in the process of switching from a 4-3 defense to a 3-4 scheme. That means you have to have the right personnel for the 3-4, and I’m not sure the Saints have that. The key to a 3-4 scheme is having an edge pass-rusher. The Saints could have had outside linebacker Jarvis Jones, who was a productive rusher in college, at No. 15, but they passed on him and took Vaccaro. That was New Orleans’ one big chance to get a pass-rusher because the Saints have been limited as to what they were able to do in free agency by the salary cap

Yeah well neither am I since I haven't seen these Saints actually play in a 34. I'm sure the first thing Ryan was told to do when he got to NO was to evaluate the current roster and see who fit in a 34 scheme, which I'm sure included our LB's. Plus we acquired Butler from the cowgirls.
