When he got to LSU he wanted to play HB but they kind of pushed him into LB so it makes sense that it took him some time to pick up the mental side, but if you watched him play this year he has that figured out. He is a Deion Jones type, but bigger, who is going to kill the combine with his speed and athleticism.  There is no question in my mind that he SHOULD be our pick wherever that ends up.

It's pretty impressive that White has been able to develop so much at LB over the past two years after coming to LSU as a RB.
White hits all that the Marvin Lewis Bengals look for...
100+ tackles in a season - check
Able to get TFLs - check
Good production in college for 2+ seasons - check

Hit growth in coverage this year shows me he really could become an elite 3-down LB and deserving of a pick between 8-12 (where I think Bengals will ultimate end up selecting).
