4 out of every 5 mocks have White at 11, the pitch is more how historically bad they were there rather than selling White.
Cincy bucked a trend and went with a young coach from the outside, it's now the FO's job in FA to make gaping holes average. If White is a top 10 talent awesome, but reaching for a need is always a bad move and could be critical this year especially with all the DL talent.
Teams will ho QB and WR for need and leave a guy like Ed Oliver, Polite or Lawrence on the board. You can't rationalize that we have Geno, so though Oliver could be Aaron Donald (play along), we HAVE to go LB at 11 because all we did in FA was resign our 2 down MLB and kick tires.
White has the athleticism and nose for the ball when he sells out on a play but they better dig in and see star ability to take him. I'm not against taking a guy like Greedy if he somehow falls or trading down if need be. I think they'll sign the FA RT finally and if they deal down to where a guy like Little is BPA then they can move him to RG. The line and lb spots are so bad that I'd rather deal down and get depth than take White if you aren't sold on him.
