Kevin White – WR – West Virginia

White, at 6’3″ and 210 pounds, possesses excellent size as a receiver. However, White’s athleticism is what’s most scary. He’s leaping ability is terrific, and he’s able to go up and pluck passes out of the air with ease. Additionally, White has some speed. White ran a 4.35 40 yard dash at the Combine, which tied Chris Gonley of Georgia for third best. White has great quickness that allows him to beat the press well. As it stands now, the Vikings don’t necessarily have a true go-to receiver, and White could be that guy for Teddy Bridgewater. White’s main weakness would be his run blocking, which can be improved with experience and the right coaching. Again, giving Bridgewater another weapon would be huge, and White could also be that guy.
