Devin White did not have the same issues as Parsons. The big asterisk is that Parsons only played two years and it was clear that they asked him not to do certain things on the field as not to develop bad technique/tendencies. It is to be assumed that his role would have increased this year but we did not get to see how well he progressed and because of that I don’t think he is worth the risk at 5.
Devin White was the best linebacker prospect since Keuchley - he had elite athleticism at OLB but could play MLB and didn’t make consistent mistakes. We don’t know how well Parsons does in coverage. He made mistakes in the run game that may have been in the middle of fixing. The potential is there but I would rather take Pitts who I think is a future HOF.
