Kevin White Truthers Unite

[StableOfRBs]

Reported on Rotoworld that his OC is showing him college highlights of his skills to gain his confidence back. Where are we at with this once highly touted prospect?

Got two images in my head reading this, one was that scene from A Clockwork Orange, the other was someone spoon-feeding a stroke victim, neither of those things are good.

I got the image of the coach saying something like "See that guy? That's who we drafted. Why aren't you this good in the NFL?"

Question:
Who's racked up more yards, at any level, since 2013- Kevin White or Josh Gordon?

Answer: I don't know but it must be close.

Yea kevin white sucks. Could he be something? Maybe. But posting about being a Truther is rough.

If he's throw in price I'm definitely interested in picking up for a third. I'll take the round 1 pedigree for that all day. But other that I am out.

I was at training camp yesterday. White looks healthy but didn't do anything special. I think it's going to take some time for him to get back to where he was, but the plus side is he's healthy and participating in training camp. He's a buy low if you can get him for a mid or late 2nd.

Side note: a great hedge bet for White owners would be Adam Shaheen. He caught 2 TD passes and looks great, and CHI has no other great red zone targets outside of Shaheen and Zach Miller if White gets hurt again or doesn't regain his old form. Shaheen should probably only cost an early 3rd right now.

As time passes and these disheartening stories keep surfacing about his confidence, its looking more and more like he isn't going to be able to put it together..

rare is the time I agree with a nino post but this is one

You should consider agreeing with me more often.

nah I would rather be right more often !

which is exactly why you should consider agreeing with me more often, ofc. plus, you wouldn't have to send me all those PMs I never bother to read every time you're salty at me


anyway, lol thread-necro

I think it's going to take some time for him to get back to where he was, but the plus side is he's healthy and participating in training camp. He's a buy low if you can get him for a mid or late 2nd.

How much time does he have, though? He has 19 career receptions at age 25, and his rookie contract is up after '18. There's a real possibility any of Cruz, Wheaton, and Wright can pass him on the depth-chart this year, and the QB situation in Chicago isn't going to help him much, either (Glennon/Trubisky-as-a-rookie is probably a downgrade from Hoyer/Cutler, horrifyingly).

I believe spending a 2nd on him right now would be buying him high, not low. I think he's worth a 3rd.

He was very inefficient even before injury. Sale if you can even get a 2018 2nd. Bears offense not a good offense as well.

favorite josh gordon trivia /stat - since december 1st 2013 he has as many tackles as TD
those 2 tackles also represent 2 more tackles than kevin white has TDs scored as an NFLer
truth >optimism

Disagree that White is any lower than the no. 2 WR on the depth chart. Cruz, Wheaton, and Wright are all JAGs at this point (Cruz maybe more). White may turn out to be nothing, but he's still the highest upside WR on a CHI roster that will face a tough schedule and have plenty of opportunities for garbage time production.

White to IR. I can't believe how injury-prone he really is. 5 games played in three years.

[balaberda]

Drop in all formats

[Tsunami]

I don't tend to think of broken bones as recurring injuries but this is three times in three years. Does he have some kind of brittle bone disease or something? Dude eat some calcium. I turned down all offers this year, I'll hold and see what I can get next year.

[Cameron Giles]

Whatever it is, chances are we'll never find out if White was actually any good.

A replay of Charles Rogers. What a shame and a loss for everyone.
