isn't he getting a bit old? what a setback picking this guy was. can you imagine if the jets actually got a player worthy of the draft position? he'd probably be a stud and still playing.

Didn't almost that whole draft just suck miserably tho? I feel like i remember it being huge busts for almost everyone

Where was he the last years?? Last I heard he had gotten a tryout with the Bears (2011?) after we released him. Never made the team in Chicago and he has been out of football since.

For those of you who remember more vividly, what exactly made Gholston such a bad player? I didn't have access to Jet games at the time, living out of state, so I never got to watch him game-to-game. Was it a work ethic thing or lack of intelligence? I mean, he's a physical beast who I thought would have torn it up in the NFL. Guess not.

Gholston has clearly missed his calling. The ability to get a tryout with an NFL team at this stage of his "career" would translate to huge success in sales.

Top 20 picks from 2008 draft. Interesting that both DEs (Gholston and Harvey) were total busts.
