Rex Ryan seems to be 3 to 4 times a better coach than Mangini will ever be, but understanding the type of player that Gholston is, you absolutely have to expect him to hit the ground running in order to be successful.
I do think we'll be pretty certain by October 1 this year whether Gholston is a bust or not.
The reasoning is this: the allure to taking him at No. 6 overall is that you are drafting a matchup nightmare for offensive coordinators. The idea was to get a player who can't be blocked by the Khalif Barnes', and Tony Ugoh's of the world. They'll need help. Well, if he was supposedly athletic enough to be that guy, I'm thinking that we would have seen some sign by the 20 game mark. He's not getting more athletic as he gets older.
