J/k I know that this does not mean they would draft him. Just glad to see he might be in the conversation.

Kevin White visit tour set to begin

It was only a matter of time before Kevin White started piling up frequent flier miles.

The former West Virginia wide receiver could be a top-five pick in the NFL draft in three weeks, yet entered the week having not visited a single NFL team. But with his first visit, to the Tennessee Titans on Wednesday, now behind him, White revealed a busy schedule of more upcoming trips.

The New York Jets, Chicago Bears, St. Louis Rams and New York Giants are all arranging to host White, according to Ross Tucker of the NBC Sports Network. Between those and perhaps a few other visits or private workouts, White's calendar for the next three weeks should be very full.

The Jets hold the No. 6 pick of the draft, but with the club's uncertainty at the quarterback position, a wide receiver wouldn't figure to be the right first-round move for Gang Green. By contrast, the Bears are in need of a wide receiver and White could be an ideal fit for an offense that could use another dynamic target to pair with Alshon Jeffery.

Presumably, quarterback Jay Cutler would approve. The Bears traded wide receiver Brandon Marshall and a seventh-round draft pick to the Jets for a fifth-round pick earlier this offseason.

White and Alabama's Amari Cooper are expected to be the first two wide receivers chosen in the draft, with the first possibly going to the Oakland Raiders with the No. 4 pick.

Hip Hip...OK.

Minus a trade up, chances are neither White or Cooper will be wearing Rams Horns as rookies.

I'd kind of bust a nut having the WVU Trifecta of electric WRs.

Austin/Bailey/White.

Put Bailey in the slot, White at Flanker, and Austin as Split-End for a couple plays a year.

I want White or Cooper, but if we trade up how are we going to fix the line? The line is by far our weakest link. We cannot go into the season with a scrub line again. Look how Dallas was so successful last year. We have to fix the line.

It'll take a miracle for Cooper or White to fall.

Unfortunately...I agree. They're better than any of the other wide receivers that came out last year.

We'd need to trade up for one of them...and we don't have the ammunition to do that. So we have to pray that Peat falls to us or that we can find a trade down offer if he doesn't.

Clemmings is my top ranked OL in this class FWIW.

I have him third ranked (below Peat and Cann), but I'd rather get him in the twenties. Looks very likely: Flowers is so overrated right now that he'll probably go ahead of Clemmings, who is a better player in almost every facet of the game.

Well if you trade up for White or Cooper it will probably cost you a second round pick, maybe you get lucky and only have to give up a third, doubt it though. So of it costs a second then we wait until the third to fill one of our three starters needs. That really limits your chances. Yes teams find quality guys in the third and later. We haven't been that lucky when it comes to linemen.

My assumption is we go with Barnes, Jones, or Rhaney at C. Maybe we sign Barksdale back leaving us one hole.

There is also first round quality linemen in this draft.

after Scherff? Wouldn't give any of the rest a 1st rd grade...

Collins lost 15lbs to play at the senior bowl/combine trying to get fast enough to play LT..even at that weight tested 23rd best sparq for olinemen ..back up at 320 at pro day
short player with short arms with a bad sparq....want to guess his sparq at the combine if he weighed his usual 320 not 305? And he is one of the good oline prospects available after Scherff.. Maybe Flowers? He finished 27th best in sparq. How about Clemmings only 22 on the bench and scored 13 on the wonderlic and is green as grass as a player.
