 * Comment Article was created as a result of an AFC request when Golden was on the Eagles' roster. Of course, he was later cut before the season started, so I have no objection to the outcome of the AfD.  Enigma msg  17:20, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails WP:ATHLETE and no other assertion of notability is given. Frank  |  talk  18:07, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep article has cited sources, there appear to be many more on the web, and subject matter appears notable through general notability guideline. As an alternative, the data could be merged into the college team article for that year.  While I have a problem with the content of the article (it does not appear to "strongly assert" notability) it's borderline to me and could be re-written.  I'm not particularly enthusiastic about this subject so I'm not going to do that, but someone else might.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:26, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails WP:Athlete as he has never played professionally. I don't see separate compliance with WP:GNG. Of the sources, 2 links are broken, one is an incidental mention and two consist of college stats. Further, I note that he is not considered significant enough to warrant a mention in the Penn State Nittany Lions football article. Bridgeplayer (talk) 20:57, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment not being listed in the Penn State football program Wikipedia page is not a reason to delete, as Wikipedia is far from complete. Google News shows a good 500+ articles.--Paul McDonald (talk) 23:38, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete Of the hits on Google News, few seem to be both independent and about him (the only one I saw that seriously seemed to be was from Sports Illustrated). There seemed to be a fair bit of mention of his signing with the Eagles, but as he was dropped without playing for them, I don't suppose that counts as notable.  Several other hits seemed to be of other people entirely. David V Houston (talk) 17:41, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
