When has White ever done this in the NFL.
White was on the Pats roster when Lewis came in and passed him by like Fredo Corleone.
White's game is good enough to be a serviceable 3rd down back but nothing special.
He runs good routes and has good hands. He can make 1 guy miss in space but he won't be making 2 or 3 miss on the same play. I think he can run most of the route tree for 3rd down backs.
The Patriots prefer to have their 3rd down backs also able to run WR routes and IDK if White can do that or not. He can block reasonably well on blitz pick up though.
Overall you miss the big play guy but White can at least move the sticks. Lewis converted some big plays out of nothing and without him those plays won't be happening from the RB position which is unfortunate.
And it seems to have received good reviews so far. Hope NE's James White has the same reception.Apparently there's a new movie in theaters this weekend titled "James White"...
Interesting coincidence...
White was inactive. They couldn't bring him in.I thought it was interesting that they brought in Bolden over White.
Not sure what that means other than the coaches felt he was a better fit for the game plan.
I didn't have coffee yet...White was inactive. They couldn't bring him in.
I don't see it happening but ...
James White 2013 highlights... they called him "Sweet Feet"... I watched this and have hope.

With Dion Lewis on field the Patriots averaged 6.47 yards per play, but without him they averaged 5.25 yards http://itiswhatitis.weei.com/sports/newengland/football/patriots/2015/11/12/what-patriots-will-miss-without-dion-lewis-potentially-sebastian-vollmer/…
