Draft Profile: Devin White could be a versatile midfield defender for the Lions

If the Detroit Lions choose to turn to the draft to fix their issues at linebacker, one of the top names they’re going to look into is Devin White out of Louisiana State. White is one of the most commonly mentioned players for LB1 in this draft class and a guy I fully expect to go Day 1 or early Day 2 as he’s currently projected. With the type of defense the Lions run, they’re going to need someone who can do more than just control his gaps, and White provides the versatility the team may be looking for to pair with Jarrad Davis in the middle of the defense.
