Oh ... and Darrell Russell was a great, great football player until he pissed it away on dope. The kid made two Pro Bowls before his 23rd birthday. He was first team All Pro in his second NFL season at the age of 22. Had he stayed clean (and, ultimately, healthy) he could have been an all-time great.
Good post Rep for you stat/link king.
But Gholston is a 3-4 outside linebacker and the Raiders don't need another one Trick Pony we already have enough of them on Defense. IMO Howard,Burgess,Huff,Stu, Warren are only useful on Passing downs because they are incomplete skill wise. And thats the thing, Gholston Does not Fit into the Defensive system the Raiders are trying to implement if he doesn't excel against the run.

i'll say man.....he's a raider now ad we cant choose family so he's family now and family sticks together, plus all players in the draft over time have star or bust written all over them.

My first reaction would be wondering how many McFadden nut huggers jumped off of a tall building.

Seriously, people will complain about this pick or that pick. Bottom line, whoever we pick be it McFadden, C. Long, Gholston, Dorsey, etc. people will complain that it should've been someone else until they perform on the field, and once they do that, then people will tend to forget about us not drafting "X player".

Gholston is going to be a stud. Y'all that are dissing him are dead wrong! My reaction will be, "SWEET!!! GIVE ME A SHOT OF TRES GENERACIONES PUTA!!"
