The New England Patriots opened Day 2 of the NFL Draft by bolstering their defensive line.
They selected Georgia Tech edge rusher Keion White in the second round with the No. 46 overall pick. White, 24, is considered a big edge rusher at nearly 6-foot-5 and 285 pounds.
Here are four things to know about White.
He’s a former tight end.
White hasn’t always strictly played defensive end.
Playing high school ball in North Carolina, White actually started off playing center and linebacker. He eventually moved to tight end and defensive end, but colleges were more impressed by his play on offense when he was a recruit.
