STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Vaki excels in pass protection; DB background aids special teams role.

Vaki consistently picked up blitzing linebackers during red zone drills and final practice drills, showing reliability in pass protection. His defensive back background (similar to Tay Martin) gives him a physical edge on special teams, where he has been working.
