LSU LB and possible Bengals target Devin White declares for the NFL Draft

The best linebacker in college football is going to the NFL.

Devin White, the Butkus award-winning linebacker out of LSU, has decided to forgo his final year of eligibility and declare for the NFL Draft.

White has consistently been linked to the Bengals in most mock drafts thus far due to their obvious need at linebacker. Between injuries and suspensions keeping the position group from truly playing together for most of the season, the Bengals looked utterly looked lost in the second level of their defense. Factoring in Vontaze Burfict looking like a shell of himself, it’s clear that major change is needed there.
