Kevin White has flat-out absurd raw talent. He’s a player with the pure talent and athleticism to be as good as any. However, when will he put it all together is one heck of a good question. In reality, in fantasy football the only question that matters is will he put it together in 2015? My answer is… probably not.

Kevin White could have more potential for the 2015 season than any of his fellow soon to be rookie receivers. Personally I see White’s value as being very contingent on who his quarterback is come 2015. Not for nothing, but the same could be said about essentially every wide receiver or tight end in this draft. White in particular would really benefit from a franchise quarterback capable of brining him along.

A little bit of a wild card; White could be a Pro Bowler in 2015 or he could be just another extremely talented receiver struggling to put it all together. The fact is, like with the NFL draft, in fantasy football drafts it only takes one owner to love a player for that player to go very early in the draft. You might have to reach for White in order to draft him, I’d advise against it.
