The Facts: Curtis Johnson, Chicago's brand new receivers coach, is charged with the development of former first-round pick White, who is destined for a large role in Chicago's offense. Johnson, however, feels White is still a work-in-progress. "[He needs to work on] everything," Johnson said.
Diehards Line:
Johnson added: "Kevin had a year off. He comes from a program that really didn’t move him around very much. So now he’s getting used to the formations, he’s getting used to the quarterbacks, and he’s getting used to everything. But I think overall he’s just playing football, the knowledge of the game, and all those things, he needs to improve on that. But he’s improving and it’s going pretty fast. He’s big, he’s physical. He has really good hands. Better hands than I thought when I watched him in college. He’s just going to be a guy -- he’s a work in progress right now. I think he’s going to be a really, really good player for us." Based on his current ADP, WR36, fantasy owners are buying into the notion of White’s upside.
