In his years with the New Orleans Saints personnel department, Bears general manager Ryan Pace was involved in occasional picks of wide receivers high in their respective drafts. Those receivers — and the selection of Kevin White by Pace at No. 7 in the 2015 draft — point a clear arrow toward Pace’s philosophy in building an offense.
White is 6-3, 210 pounds, roughly the same height as Alshon Jeffery but a few pounds lighter. More to the Pace point: White ran a 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine in 4.35 sec. That was unofficially faster than times posted by other supposed super-speed receivers.
