Considering the current state of the Bengals LB corps, which you mentioned, the guys available in round 2 would still be big upgrades to anything on this roster, and almost certainly start immediately at WLB.
I kind of wonder about the optics of this, though. The team gets killed for never addressing LB in the 1st round, for never putting an emphasis on the position. You know that is going to be the predominant story if they put it off again, no matter who they would grab in the second or third.
Granted I don't think this should determine their draft strategy or anything, but you *know* they'll get killed locally if they pass on White or Bush.
In all honesty, this is one year where I'm really glad I don't have to make the decision lol.
