White plus a little gloating

1.) He can play base Sam  LB for us . He can set an edge and has enough athletic ability to cover TEs and RBs. 
2.) Lawson just tore his ACL we may need to think about an edge player to replace him. If Lawson is healthy then it doesn't hurt to have another pass rushers on the roster. Especially when you consider that 70% of games are played in Nickle and you really only need 2 LB on a field at once.
3.) I role the dice and draft him if he is there because I think the talent out weighs the need value. Also I think he can do it all; while he may feel/want to be a full time pass rusher he also can be an effective off Ball LB.

I agree that Allen is great. And he'd be good in a 3-4. 4-3 as well but he's a edge rusher that has the ability to play lber. That said white is a better Blitzer from the lber spot which we never have had, and is a better athlete and can run better with tes and rbs. Honestly it's splitting the slightest of hairs, but if both are there I'm taking white.
