In his latest 2019 NFL mock draft, Draft Wire’s Luke Easterling has the Denver Broncos selecting LSU linebacker Devin White with the 10th overall pick in the first round.
Easterling was quick to admit that White falling to the 10th pick would be a bit of a surprise:
This falls well for the Broncos, who need a three-down playmaker at the second level, and would have this year’s top linebackers to pick from here. White’s impressive performance at the NFL Scouting Combine backed up his solid film, where he showed a complete skill set going up against top competition. He could easily end up being a top-five pick, so getting White here is a huge bargain.
White (6-0, 237 pounds) ran a 40-yard dash in 4.42 seconds and bench-pressed 225 pounds 22 times at the combine earlier this offseason. NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein has compared White to Myles Jack, who was a second-round pick in the 2016 NFL draft.
