It is like comparing "sacks per snap" between one DE who only plays on passing downs and another who plays on every down. It is apples to oranges.

And none of that supports your assertion that Vigil is "much better" at shedding blockers. Do you know why there are DEs that only come in on passing downs? Wait for it....because they are better at shedding blockers, much like LBs that play on running downs.
