Could Kenny Vaccaro handle playing CB full-time?

I'm not saying that KV should switch to CB, I'm just wondering if y'all think that he could if placed at the CB position.
I think that KV has looked solid in the Nickel. I like his physicality. I'm not an expert, so I don't know if he has the ideal hips/speed for it, but he might(Like I said, I don't know.).
At Texas I'd guess that he stays at Safety. I'm just wondering if y'all think that he could excel at CB and if his future NFL position(If he makes the NFL) could be at CB.

I don't think he is smooth enough in his back pedal to play CB at the next level.

I think he could but he's not a plus corner like he is a plus safety. Just my take.

It's not like he plays a true safety position anyway. He's in the box but also plays the slot. Usually the back 2 guys were Gideon and Scott.

If he could we might have had Diggs ballhawking back there at S.

I think he could do it, but it'd take alot of training. How do you guys see UT commit Orlando Thomas doing as a CB? He's been playing QB for his high school so its hard to gauge his back pedal and his reaction time. Check out his highlights below and let me know where he can best help Texas next season.
