Here was the readers digest version:
In his career-best season from a coverage grade standpoint (2017), Mosley ranked seventh among qualifiers, but he has failed to recreate such a high mark in any other year of his career. His 66.5 coverage grade this past season tied for 17th at the position.
Good, not great coverage and strong run defense at off-ball linebacker can be added to the roster for far less than the price tag likely pinned to Mosley in free agency.

I'm also a fan of Corey Littleton. But, using a PFF article doesn't begin to explain how they get to their numbers on a player. Personally, I think they are just taking outcomes of a play, adding in a variable or two, and letting the computer do it's work. That computer is likely not taking into account the other 10 people's jobs on the same side of the ball, etc. Until they explain how they come to their reasonings on players' performances, I'll remain suspect.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
