Values as in inputs?

I know they denote SHA256 as having 8 inputs with A-H, each capable of taking in 32 bits. Inputs A and E require processing but everything else just gets shifted over.
Yes. a and e for the first 3 rounds are precalculated because they don't change when you change the nonce in the block header.
It's part of the speed optimization.
