Inconsistency does not = laziness. Hate to break it to you, but even Bruce Smith had stretches of games where he wasn't heard from, and so did Derrick Thomas.
Before Gholston played football, he wanted to be a professional bodybuilder (I know, shocker). I think that says a lot about the guy. Juice or not, bodybuilding is an activity that requires a ridiculous amount of work ethic and dedication. He's not some guy who was just born a football player--he's a very hard worker and the scouts back that up. If you have a guy that is a genetic freak and a hard worker, you have dynamite on your hands.
I just want to know why a guy who had 0 sacks in the 4th quarter and no sacks in over 1/3 of his games is all of a sudden a gold standard.
