Vernon Gholston

[ajk23az]

This guy is a BEAST.

He had his pro day today and upped his vertical leap by 6 INCHES from his very good combine and ran a 4.58 40 yard dash.

That is insane. This guy is ridiculous!

 

[masomenos]

Bill Parcells may have thoughts of Demarcus Ware dancing in his head.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

that is very impressive to say the very least.

 

[IronCowboy]

Sadly, we wont get him.

 

[dbair1967]

I'm certainly hoping the Raiders or Jets are taking strong notice of Mr Gholston

I hate this guys name.

Every time I see it I think Vern Gosdin and start signing "Set 'em Up Joe."

 

[Big Dakota]

Like Eddie Murphy said about Mr. T, "He don't like he CAN'T fight" :laugh2:

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

Yeah I believe he'll be another Merriman type player on the Pro level....

 

[jdnoyes]

Most people have Chris Long slotted to the Dolphins, but my money is on Parcells plucking this guy to be his next LT or DWare assuming he can't move down.

 

[TheCount]

Hell, I'd rather move up to get Gholston than McFadden. Would probably cost us less too.

Are you guys done creaming your pants?

He ran a 4.7 at the combine. He posted a 35 inch vertical. Thats it. Period. Thats his speed. Thats his vertical. You tell my college coach to hand-time me in the 40yd dash and i'm pretty sure it will be in the 4.2. What you saw at the combine is what you get. How the hell did this guy learn how to jump 7 inches higher all of a sudden? Did he lose all his organs or what? 1 inch? sure. 2 inches? mh, alright. 3 inches? well....aallllllrriiiight. 7 inches? get the **** outta here. While we're at it he bench pressed the 225 over 80 times at his pro day, according to his agent.

Its amazing to me that some people still act like Pro Day numbers are actually worth something. They are worthless. Maybe its just coincidence that 100% of the college players for some reason perform way better at their pro day. It must be.

Oh well lets Party on. 42 inches!!!!! WOOOHOOOOO WE GOTTA GET THIS GUY!!!!!

Al Davis, is that you?

I'd be very surprised if he's as productive as Ware or Merriman, yet he'll be taken 5-10 spots ahead of where they were taken.

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

Yeah he can definitely play... I like Chris Long though, he's just like his dad but even more athletic.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

it's because this draft is weak at the top, IMO, there's only 2 legitimate top 5 candidates, McFadden and Jake Long

a 35" vertical at 258lbs. (not counting the Pro Day increase as I don't want to get RW31 all riled up again) THAT'S impressive

 

[unionjack8]

easy to do when you're juiced up. Yeah he'll be like Merriman.............. suspended !!

 

[JPM]

He ran that magic number Hos.

 

[Hostile]

He ran that magic number Hos.

I saw that and felt the butterflies in the stomach.
