The depth of the 2019 NFL Draft class looks like it’s on the defensive side of the ball and the Packers would be cashing in on that depth here. The Packers have some talent at the inside linebacker positions with Blake Martinez and Oren Burks, but White is a special type of player who flies around the field, not unlike Roquan Smith at Georgia. He makes plays behind the line of scrimmage, plays sideline to sideline, and can match athleticism in space with tight ends and running backs in coverage. This would be a centerpiece type of selection for the Packers in the middle of their defense.
