Texas Pro Day: Vaccaro halted by hip injury

NFLDraftScout.com's top-rated safety Kenny Vaccaro wanted to run for scouts and improve his 40-yard dash time at the Texas Pro Day on Tuesday, but was limited due to a hip flexor injury. While he stood on his numbers from the combine, he did participate in positional drills, which were led by Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer.
Vaccaro, who ran a 4.63 40-yard dash in Indianapolis, looked athletic during drills and battled through the hip injury, which he suffered during a private workout with the Dallas Cowboys last week. He showed excellent burst and reaction quickness with little hesitation in his movements. Vaccaro did nothing to hurt his status as the draft's top safety prospect and could be drafted in the top half of round one in April.

Steel Maniac's Time-Based Prediction: Lamar Jackson will be a bust and total flop in the NFL.
What Actually Happened: Lamar Jackson became the youngest two-time NFL MVP winner ever.

Boom........
My IT guy...Hahahahahahaha
I watched a lot of Texas and Florida this year. I believe Elam is a more explosive, more intuitive player. He blows up more plays and creates more big plays. He does gamble more than I'd like and sometimes misses tackles going for the knockout. Vaccaro is taller so he'd match up better on TEs flexed out in the slot. But, Vaccaro did not play much back half safety this season. And, he whiffs in the open field more than I'd like. His man coverage skills are good, but I don't think he is fast enough to handle really quick slot receivers. Elam inspires the players around him to play better. Vaccaro has nice tattoos.
Even if Bill Belichick was getting an atomic wedgie, his face would look exactly the same.
He is 22 right now. Which is older than the steelers like to pick in the first round. I would bet against him being the guy. I think you have the right position but the wrong guy.
LETS GO MOUNTAINEERS!
Here We Go Steelers!
maybe you hit your head ovi, that might explain the dizziness. I agree with you as well on USC and I am beginning to wonder about Alabama players in the same way. Wehn you are surrounded by superior talent and playing against inferior talent, you look pretty good. Maybe better than what you actually are.
no stats to back it up, just a suspicion.
It's no different than SuperBowl winners in the NFL. Typically one guy is a stud and makes everyone else play better when he gets double teamed or game planned against. And sometimes it's tough to figure out which guy is the superstar and which guys to avoid. Sometime it seems easier to look at lesser schools that have one super athlete and stand out player. But even that's hard to determine how they stand up against good competition.
Picks from the really big programs always make me a little nervous.
"Eifert".
don't think think I saw his name in this thread yet..
