Seeing clips of White, he usually had gaping, Courtney Love-size holes to run through.  He breaks some arm tackles, but it's not like the guy creates holes like the best "big backs" ever to play the game.

If he falls, he won't make the 2nd round.  The Steelers need a fat RB to replace Jerome Bettis.

We could just trade them Hollis Thomas to play RB for Joey Porter and Hines Ward.

This list is pretty broad as it goes back to the bowl games, but these are guys that the Eagles interviewed once or more back then. From Next Level Scouting, which I think PP54 referenced earlier in this thread. Sorry. it's not by position.

POST-SEASON PLAYERS OF INTEREST FOR EACH TEAM
Written by John Murphy Friday, 10 March 2006

Over the course of the East-West Shrine Game and Senior Bowl practice sessions, as well as the numerous hours of time spent in the hotel lobby and interview areas of the individual game headquarters it is easy to observe the genuine interest certain teams have in learning more about individual prospects.

Here is a team-by-team list of "Players of Interest" for each team who either spent occasions speaking to all the players listed one-or-more times after one-or-several practices, back in the respective hotel lobbies, in official/un-official meeting/hotel rooms or at the very least requested to speak further with the players after they completed a team profile sheet during the two week evaluation process that took place in mid-to-late January. We have also added a handful of Underclassmen who were interviewed during the week of one of the two games or contacted themselves or through their agents during that period of time.

However, one very interesting note on all of these interviews or meetings is the fact that on occasion teams will actually schedule an interview with a certain player in order to also ask him questions about a current or former teammate, even as far back as someone they played with in high school. In fact, while collecting the data to compile this list one player told us that every team he interviewed with specifically asked him 2-3 pointed questions about one of his college teammates, regarding his own evaluation of that players attitude, character and conduct off-the-field.

Will this be a foreshadow to what or how the teams plan to further evaluate the prospects listed below at the Combine and/or upcoming Pro Days will only prove out in time, but for now it might lend some insight to how teams might look to fill areas of need come April's NFL Draft.

PFT on White:

LenDale White continues to "train" for the NFL Draft.

Prediction:  White will be there at #45, and the Eagles still won't take him.

Maurice Drew was on NFL Radio with Kirwin and Ryan...He said he's met with 3 teams so far. ATL, Jax, and us.

Maurice Drew? 

Thats a great idea, lets get another RB who's 5'8".  Then teams will really be scared.

I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood.

I don't see how a defense is supposed to stop that personnel package.

According to the TSN in their updated mock draft you are wrong.  Though I agree with you, especially after the TO fiasco the Eagles will be reluctant to ever bring a player with suspect character or attitude.

The Eagles would definitely take White at 45.

They are stubborn, but they aren't stupid. That would be the dumbest move in NFL draft history.
Calling it right on the $ since day one.
Just pointing laughing, and living it up while watching the Miami Heat stink it up.

You're simply wrong, as usual.
