For those that had their minds blown by the pick maybe this will help.

It needs to be applied to swollen areas as much as possible

Thanks for this. He looks very fluid with his body like you would expect from a CB. Semms like he could develop into a good player. Plus he is use to being on a bad defense...

I will add I have watched Vaccaro since he was a freshman and he is a gamer. Dude plays with a lot of emotion and he will hit you.

That being said I just hope we aren't saying we could of had him in three years referring to Jones, bc he will more than likely be a baller in pittsburg.

Watching the draft last night I realized there are two things you can always count on #1 the steelers will always just wait there turn and have a really talented player who everyone knows is good fall to them, and #2 the Patriots will always trade back with a desperate team looking to trade back into the late first and get a ton of value for it.

They did sports science features on half of the first rounders. They pick something that the player is good at and make a huge deal out of it. That clip tries to make it seem like Vaccaro has better reflexes, hips, and range than Patrick Peterson. I highly doubt this is true on the field.

Well, he is the fastest at running backwards, so there's that.

I wish we could draft like either one of these teams + Baltimore. At least we have Drew to mask our defensive shortcomings.

I think these SS segments are kind of cheesy.

He can accelerate up to 20 mph while his centripetal force is over his hind legs at an angle of 60 degrees to the horizontal in 0.5 seconds he makes a 720 degree turn all while performing an experiment using the scientific method just in time to break up the pass.

Backpedal is actually one of the most important abilities for a DB.

Anyone who is denying that this guys is a good pick just wants to be angry.

He outranked Eric Reid because of his versatility.

Mark Barron put up an excellent rookie year last year, and only ran a 4.58 40. 4.5 is plenty fast enough for a safety
