I really wish the Bucs tried to deploy White like Parsons. Bowles insists he's a LB though and his contract is expiring soon. After last year, there's now way you can say he deserves an extension.
This would be interesting but man Parsons is a freak. He must be several inches taller than White and I think faster even.
Let's convert White back to RB, his natural position
/bluefont
Yeah I think Parsons is like 3" taller and 10-15 pounds heavier. Plus he has played DE since HS days so its a natural fit for him full time.I really wish the Bucs tried to deploy White like Parsons.

You know what's not a nature fit for Devin White? Inside Linebacker
well he'd be even worse at DE. Mauled on run plays and has zero pass rush moves so..Yeah I think Parsons is like 3" taller and 10-15 pounds heavier.

You play him at his best position which is LB in which he's shown spurts of success in until its time to replace him.
Trade him. Forget about trying to repurpose him. Get something for him while we still can.

You're trying to lecture me but don't even know how this defense uses personnel.

False. White ain't playing here EDGE/OLB let it go.well he'd be even worse at DE. Mauled on run plays and has zero pass rush moves so..Yeah I think Parsons is like 3" taller and 10-15 pounds heavier.

Imagine being a NFL coach moving a players position to one he's never played before at ANY level HS, college or NFL. Imagine thinking because someone can run through gaps untouched to get to the QB by the product of his DL he'd be able to win on the edge 1v1. Couldn't be me

You know the Bucs moved Lavonte David from OLB to ILB right?
You know the Bucs moved Lavonte David from OLB to ILB right?
The responsibility of OLB to ILB isn't as different as MLB to DE. Plus, Lavonte David is next-level mentally on the football field. Devin White isn't.
For the record, I posed the question about moving White from MLB to full-time pass rusher as well. I agree it's worth trying out on the practice field, but it's not the easy transition you're making it out to be. Maybe he can, maybe he can't.

Don't say DE. You know the DE's in this system are guys like Gholston, Suh, Hicks, Hall. You know I'm talking about walking him out, keeping him stood up and letting him use his speed to play in space.

Perfect example of the lunacy of the Red Board
Discussion is move MLB to DE
In that discussion JC says this " you're trying to lecture me but don't even know how this defense uses personnel" and then follows iot up with "You know the Bucs moved Lavonte David from OLB to ILB right?
Exactly it's completely night and day. David's football acumen is head and shoulders above White its not even funny.You know the Bucs moved Lavonte David from OLB to ILB right?

I think we all agree its worth a shot seeing if he could work out there bc we need some EDGE presence badly. I just know speed alone isn't going to get it done in space. You need some technique to really be effective on the outside. OP is under the assumption that because White ran a 4.42 at the combine he could just blow past 6'6 really athletic tackles that are just as agile as White, and even stronger/bigger.
