When it comes to DB evals, big difference between being opportunistic or an actual playmaker.
Guys who put themselves in good position and ball seems to find them on tipped & errant throws have value.
But guys who anticipate & break on ball are more valuable—and harder to find.

In 1979, Willie E. Jeffries became the first African-American to be hired as a NCAA Division 1-A head coach when he took the job at Wichita State University. He coached for five seasons and went 8-3 with the Shockers in 1982, finishing 2nd in the Missouri Valley Conference.
Born to slave parents in Berkley, Virginia in 1868, William Henry Lewis worked to pay for his education. He graduated from Amherst College in Massachusetts where he became one of the first Black men to play collegiate football, serving as team captain in 1890 and 1891.
My hope is that you can apply all this to the failures in your life that are yet to come.
Every failure is a reset point.
It forces accountability.
It reminds us all to be humble.
The most important thing to remember is that failure can actually set you up for success.
Small failures along the way, with lessons learned, help you keep moving.
People who win all the time think they have all the answers.
That’s actually the most dangerous place to be.
Lastly, recognize that this is a temporary state.
Failures today can be part of victories tomorrow.
Just because you have the plan to win everything, there’s always a bigger vision you might not be able to see.
Once you’ve fully reflected about it, don’t just keep things in your head.
This part is crucial.
Write. It. Down.
Keep a record of what happened and what you learned.
Look back on those notes when you are in similar situations.
