WindyCity Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Kevin White is just bad. I wish him the best, but he is not a good WR with bad health. He is a bad WR with bad health. He made a ton of money off that 40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think that’s the right analogy for White. That’s for guys who look like Madden create-a-players but play super soft. White doesn’t play soft. He has always been a guy who fights for yards and hasn’t shown any hesitation to put his body on the line to make plays despite his injury history. Being injury prone and playing soft often go together but they aren’t the same thing, and White is only injury prone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it was first used it seemed to apply mainly to work out warriors who were buff but not great football players. Now days I'm thinking it applies more to Combine darlings with great measurables but whom again just don't play football well at all. I don't see White as being soft I just see a kid who wowed scouts and GMs with his size and speed to the degree that they overlooked how limited he was in his understanding of a route tree and the need in the NFL to run precision routes with precision timing. He was never asked to do that in college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topwop1 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I have this weird feeling that wherever White ends up next he will go on to have a good season. I'm not so sure he got a fair shake this past season with the Bears. In the games I saw him play he wasn't bad. Really weird situation but ya his time in Chicago is up. Sucks Pace wasted a high 1st like that. La Canfora is one reporter I rarely give much respect to because most of the time he is full of ****, but I actually agree that Patriots are a team that could be in play.

He struggles with every aspect of football. -Staying healthy -Learning a playbook -Running routes -Catching the ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty21 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I’m not butthurt about him busting and never doing anything for us. I hope he can catch on somewhere and somewhat live up to whatever hype he once had, however unlikely that may be. One time in madden I traded him to the dolphins and he had 7 straight 2000 yard seasons, so maybe that’s his ceiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
