Re: Handwerger: Saints seem to have missed opportunity by taking safety
With his leaping ability and athleticism, he is our best bet at stopping Gonzo.

Re: Handwerger: Saints seem to have missed opportunity by taking safety
I don't think Vaccaro was a reach at 15. He was the considered by all the best Safety in the draft.
San Fran moved up to 18 to grab Eric Reid who was not considered the talent that Vacarro was. This way you now have two safeties that can play free safety, strong safety and corner nickel. Much easier to hide coverages with Jenkins and Vacarro than with harper. Jenkins downfall came from Spag's scheme, Harper was never what we thought he would be when we drafted him. |

Well if not that big a disparity it still stands that Vacarro was not a reach at 15 unless San Fran reached also. |

Re: Handwerger: Saints seem to have missed opportunity by taking safety
The defense as a whole took a step back, it wasn't just Reid. The Tigers for whatever reason didn't generate a lot of pressure last year as they did in the past... and that definitely coincides with the secondary production. They also started to freshman corners so the continuity and chemistry wasn't always there. When one part isn't functioning as it should, other areas can take a hit along with it.
With that said, he certainly should have made more plays last year. The pressure, hype, and weight of the defense was too much for him to handle. San Fran was the perfect fit for him to grow into a very good player. They're strong on every level and he just needs to play his part. |

"Seemed to have missed" That's what you say in the event he is an all pro and defensive rookie of the year or a complete bust.

Re: Handwerger: Saints seem to have missed opportunity by taking safety
when do yall think he wouldve been drafted if we didnt get him at fifteen. My other question would be if we couldve traded back and still drafted him.
