I agree with you Train, Gholston is a monster and it would be freaking sweet if he fell to 23.....It won't happen but he would be freaking badass as an OLB in the 3-4.....

Hes gonna be a solid DE, but he would be a freak in a 34 as an OLB...an absolute freak....a guy like that would shatter records playing for us

Both Gholston and Long put on a show in the drills but Gholston was more fluid. If he were to fall to 23, we had better grab him, we can find OL in rd 2 and on day 2.
