He graded badly in numerous games and while his 2014 plummet was a bit surprising, it wasn't a shock. Several people warned us he wasn't that good, but I just chalked it up to UT haters. |

Vaccarro is one of the most talented players on the team and really one of the most talented strong safeties in the league. Not many guys in the league, can move like he can, hit like can, and have the coverage abilities he possesses. I get tired of people talking about him like he's just some guy. Dude is a monster athletically. He had a terrible year by his standards last year and it probably had a lot to do with injuries, but also mental preparation for the season and each game. It happens for young guys. If he puts the work in, to ensure he's healthy and he's put the work in in the film room he can be an all-pro safety. Especially if the guys we have around him start clicking. I don't mean to hype him up, I just hate the negatively and pessimism some of have towards him like he didn't play on an atrocity of a defense last year.

He was just trying to learn to tackle with something other than his head...

It takes even seasoned pro's a year to acclimate to a new team and a new scheme.
