Valuing football acuity over dazzling measurables is a theme for their front office.
I won't lie.
I thought Mims was a credible selection, but as time trudges on more and more the reasoning of Van Jefferson so makes sense.
Even more so with the shortened, or altered season that looms ahead.
The networks showcase on Van's knowledge base was a lesson unto itself. Pre-snap read, body lean, head angle, shoulder tilt, and swiftly adjusting to defensive sets after snap........all this stuff ties well to the earlier selection of Cooper Kupp.
Yep. These guys might not be the darlings of the combine, or have the blue chip markers from highly paid analyst, and yet their the ones that make the enormous impact plays on Sundays.
Here's to Van healing well before they take snaps up in Thousand Oaks, and I won't be startled at all to see how quickly this guy make McVay and Snead look so wise.
