In his interview with Moscona, Whit mentioned how he's been working on understanding offensive passing schemes better this offseason. Says he's looking for 3 picks and focusing on taking away reads 1 and 2 rather than squatting on reads 3 and 4 like years past.

This type of stuff fires me up. He was already a dude based on sheer ability and instinct, but the attention to detail of knowing the opposing QBs read progression pre snap based on personnel and alignment is really promising. If this is the level at which we develop players moving forward then it ought to be a really fun several years.

Between him and PJ Woodland should have the entire fanbase excited.

Could not agree more. Woodland has been one of my favorite players the last couple of years. He's been over looked by local and national media because of names like Delane and Pickett but he's such a difference maker. His picks come from man coverage and he's always in phase on tape, he plays through blocks with his hands on the perimeter, he's twitchy in his zone breaks towards underneath routes causing several PBUs, and the dude can blitz effectively from the corner position. I'm not saying he's the best DB we've had, hell he may not be the best DB we have currently with Pickett on the other side... but that dude would be the best DB on the field for a lot of football teams, and he's damn fun to watch

Hes the hardest working and has that fighter mentality. Hes going to be a very successful player.

Just curious, unless you’re on the team or involved someway behind the scenes, how do you quantify this?
