At six-foot-even and 212 pounds, White possesses a fine frame. Athletic, speedy and quick, he’s effective vertically and underneath. On deep routes, he can get beyond defenders very quickly. He creates separation easily using in and out breaks and has a fine initial burst off the line. His hands are good and he adjusts nicely to coverage while running accurate routes. He continues to develop but must finally learn to hold onto the ball and keep his focus.
