Kedric Golston
Defensive tackle
Height: 6-foot-4

Class Year: Sr
Experience: 3V
High School: Sandy Creek
Hometown: Tyrone, GA
Squat Max: 550 lbs
Bench Max: 500 lbs
NFL Draft Summary
Frank Coyle: He tries hard, but may never be more than a backup in the NFL unless there is major improvement. Boom or bust prospect with definite motor concerns. [More]
Main | Stats | Bio Notes | Headlines | Accolades | As a Recruit | Scouting Report Photo Gallery
Pros: Agile, athletic tackle has shown some big play ability in the middle for the ‘Dogs over his career. His final season held high expectations, but he did not display the level of consistency in either run and pass defense. He hoped to establish himself as a top flight NFL prospect with improved strength and experience but his production remained erratic.
Cons: He shows quickness and power from the inside and still has interesting potential, but must show he can progress from a technique and strength standpoint. He needs to get off blockers better and locate the ball sooner to make more plays as a run defender. He can be slow to react and gets washed out too often at the point of attack.
Numbers: At the Combine, he did 31 reps in the 225-pound bench press and ran a 4.94 40-yard dash with a 33-inch vertical jump and a 9-foot-3 broad jump.
Skinny: He tries hard, but may never be more than a backup in the NFL unless there is major improvement. Boom or bust prospect with definite motor concerns.

Kedrick Golston
DT | (6'4", 300, 4.94) | GEORGIA
Strengths: Possesses very good height and adequate bulk as a one-gap prospect. Is quick and possesses adequate athletic ability for the position. Shows good initial burst and the ability to consistently penetrate as a three-technique. Plays with a good motor. Will pursue hard and chase from behind once he locates the ball. He has adequate upper body power. Is a solid open field tackler for the position.
Weaknesses: Lacks ideal lower body size and strength. Plays too high and loses his power. Needs to show more leverage and do a better job with his hands when taking on blocks. Does not possess the base to contribute as a two-gap DT in the NFL. Gets pushed around too much by bigger blockers when teams run at him. He is not an instinctive player. Takes too long to locate the ball when he penetrates the backfield. His overall technique needs improving. He lacks a wide array of pass rush moves and has never been very effective in that facet. Durability is a major concern and he also has baggage regarding character issues.
Overall: Golston suffered a broken femur in a car accident in 2001. He played in all 14 games and started three at the NT position as a true freshman in 2002. He started the first six games of his sophomore season in 2003 before suffering a broken shoulder blade during a practice, which sidelined him for the rest of the regular season. Golston returned to play in the SEC championship game and the Capital One Bowl that season. As a junior in 2004, Golston started all 12 games and finished with 23 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks. He was suspended for the season opener in 2005 after being arrested in April for simple battery of a police officer, obstruction of a police officer and disorderly conduct during a bar fight. He missed significant time during his final season due to lingering ankle and elbow injuries. Golston finished his senior season with 25 tackles, 2.5 TFL and 1.5 sacks in nine games played (eight starts). Golston's career at Georgia was a rollercoaster. He is a talented prospect with an impressive combination of speed and athletic ability for such a big frame. He showed flashes of developing into a playmaking one-gap interior penetrator during his collegiate career. However, he lacks natural instincts, his technique needs a lot of polishing and he does not possess the base to anchor when teams run at him. Golston's long list of injuries and character issues make him an even bigger risk, which is why we expect him to slip to the fifth or sixth round of the 2006 draft.

Build through the draft!
I must admit, I've never heard of any of our second day picks and I follow the draft pretty closely. After reading up on these guys, they sound like solid prospects. And I am really happy we are looking to add depth at DT. Remember how much worse our D got when Griffin was hurt last year.
5 in a row or we don't go!

Our offense was one of the worst in the league?
ey, Portis, Moss, and Brunell all had career years last year. We've added Randle-el, Lloyd, Fauria, and Al Saunders to the mix. We've developed Jason Campbell, Robert Johnson, and several studs on the o-line as servicable backups. I thought the offense was in great shape heading into the draft.
What would you have preferred us to do for offense at 35/53 or on day 2?

Funny, I didn't think that being ranked 11th (and much higher most of the year) meant it was one of the worst in the league.
What's more, Moss and Samuels were Pro Bowlers and

I am happy with our draft. We addressed LB, DL and OL positions. Our new safety should be a great Special Teams guy.
I am very eager yet to see what happens with undrafted players. Our scouts had identified several small-school no-big-name players that are expected to be picked between today afternoon and tomorrow morning.
Joe is OK. I am OK.
I thought darn Philthy had a good draft with Justice in the 2nd round.

Daniel Snyder has defined incompetence, failure and greed to true Washington Redskins fans for over a decade and a half. Stay away from football operations !!!

I'm suprised we didn't get Kai Parham from Virgina.
He's a hometown boy (kind of) and he made a name for himself in the NCAA.
Honestly, the reason Philly always have good picks is because they pick productive players in college.
EX: Winston Justice in the 2ND ROUND! Max Jean Gilles in the 4TH ROUND! JEREMEY BLOOM! Come on, those guys and play, and the Eagles pick them, and then everyone calls them geniuses becuase they pick studs who stupid teams pass on.
I mean, sure Kevin Simon may be alright, but A) I've never heard of him B) He'll probablly get cut. While Parham is a stud who would probably make the team, and even get some PT.

Well we did "draft" Brandon Lloyd!

There are 7 on the roster
I see that, Who's the nickel and Dime backs, I would assume Kenny Wright and Ade Jimoh, Christian Morton maybe, I still think we need to be better.
We need to do better IF our pass rush DOES NOT improve.
We are fine were we are IF our pass rush IMPROVES or atleast unclogs the blitzing lanes.
The past 2 years we've needed skilled DB's because they weren't getting any help upfront and QB's could throw the ball from a hammock.
If you look at the Colts for example. Their secondary is FAR, FAR, FAR less skilled than ours. BUT THEIR PASS RUSH AKA FREENY PUT THEM light years ahead of us defensively last year.
So basically...
if you have a heck of a pass rush you can have average DB's..
no pass rush? very good DBs...
IF you have both like we MAY have this season, than you
won't be exposed like the Colts were at the end of the season as the frauds they were.
The road to the number 1 pick gaining speed!
