From Michael David Smith of ProFootballTalk:
In fact, Gholston, taken sixth overall in 2008, may have been the biggest bust of any defensive end ever selected in the NFL draft.
According to Michael Salfino of the Wall Street Journal, Gholston is the only defensive end drafted in the top 10 to fail to record a single sack since the NFL started counting sacks in 1982.
The Gholston era is over in New York and Jets fans can breathe a sigh of relief knowing this bust will be in the rearview mirror.
Some players drafted after Gholston in 2008 include LB Jerod Mayo, CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, RB Rashard Mendenhall, RB Chris Johnson, and CB Antoine Cason.
