I'm looking at Gholston for what he is...A tweaner that hasn't been asked to be in coverage much (which is exactly what he will be doing all the time in Gun's scheme), and ANOTHER DE that will command top dollar when we already have two that command enough money.
No thank you...

Donnie had a great season stat wise, but he slowed way down toward the end of the year-he's slowing down and shouldn't be counted on as a long-term solution when in rebuilding mode. Besides that, I'm advocating taking Gholston as a DE who could line up in the falcon for us from time to time. Edwards has little to do with the discussion, but since we are discussing it, I felt the need to clarify.
Also, Gholston would become one of the top two players on our defense-how in the Hell do just shrug that off as insignifigant?
