No he doesn't excite me at all, his teammate Jared Ivey from a year ago that transfered to the SEC is a lot better in my opinion. Maybe if he's there in the 3rd or 4th but I don't like his game at all.

As the 3rd round is for Center, second round offers very good value for D line, in this draft. I like Foskey and Mazi Smith much better than White though:

It mostly depends on what position we fill in the first round.  He's most likely a second-rounder.

There are a lot of late-first-round-worthy OLB's and IMO the odds are one of them will be still there at Pick 25.

The question for EDGE and OLB is how they fit in the defense.  I have no idea which ones fit our defense best.

PS. Ojulari's bro would be a better pick that White if both are still there in round 2 (unlikely, but he seems to be a clone of Azeez, generally speaking, and we KNOW he fits Wink's defense.

No matter who they take in Round 1, I see no compelling need for an EDGE in Round 2. Thus, my answer is NO!

Cheers!

Larry: For which position do you see a compelling need in round 2?  Bob

[expatriot]

No for me too.  I'd look at Henley or one of the other good ILB's who can run.

[DaveBrown74]

I would take an EDGE in round one if I were Schoen and that was the best player available. We have no depth at Edge, and at least one of our two starters is injury-prone. I consider it an area of need. So yes, I would definitely be comfortable taking one in the second.

[UKGiantsFan]

Think that question is immaterial when discussing White. He's not an EDGE

[Jclayton92]

Yeah I have no problem drafting an Edge or a DE in the 1st or 2nd, just not White for any position.
