Definitely an upgrade over Cyp, unfortunately
So glad they signed Kenny Vaccaro and not Eric Reid. Lol, good thing his flight was delayed three times, Reid's the better player.

Not really, kind of a wash. I watched this kid at Texas and his play has followed him into the league, Vaccaro is a box safety who gives up big plays in the passing game.. that's why he was still available ( box safeties aren't exactly a hot commodity in today's league). I mean he'll help out against the run, which won't be too bad against Jacksonville, but the rest of the division and the majority of the NFL aren't run heavy teams.

I would not call Vaccaro a upgrade... in fact I'd love to buy whatever pilot or pilots that were responsible for Eric Reid's flight delays a beer. Big Grin

Definitely agree here. I actually think Cyp may be better than Vaccaro in coverage. Not sure this is an upgrade as much as it is a band-aid.
