Preseason
Devin White is one of the top LB in all of IDP fantasy football and for good reason. White finished the 2020 season as the overall LB1 with a monster season of 140 tackles and 9 sacks. The former LSU Tiger fell to LB17 last season despite posting 128 tackles and 3.5 sacks. Most IDP managers didn't expect White to remain such an effective blitzer so this drop in LB rankings is a bit exaggerated. White is simply put one of the best blitzing LBs in the game and he has the benefit of playing in the most aggressive team when it comes to calling blitzes in the NFL. Devin White has turned 51 pressures into 12.5 sacks over the past two seasons which make him such a valuable asset to IDP managers. A player like Devin White can be a big advantage with his consistent high tackle numbers and his ability to bring down opposing QBs and make impact plays. In just his first three seasons he has created 26 impact plays and scored two defensive touchdowns to go along with 359 stops. Devin White has had his troubles in coverage; he allows an 80% completion percentage over his early career and has given up 1170 yards over the past two seasons. While his in-game decision making may struggle at times he surely makes up for it with speed and ability which allows him to score fantasy points. The Tampa Bay LB averaged over 17 fantasy points per game last season while playing 95% of the defensive snaps. The Buccaneers defense had two linebackers on the field for 96% of snaps in 2021, that's unlikely to change this season. Devin White is a true difference maker on the IDP side of fantasy football.
