they do so many mental evaluations that most GM's are not going to waste good money on a nutt job unless it is a late round or a FA contract.

And started a few games for the Dolphins before he got in trouble again.

If he makes it to the combine and has the measurables someone will take a chance on him. Especially if they think they can control his issues with medication etc. Herschel Walker had a personality disorder or something and did ok.

Who do you want to shut up? Gilbert hasn’t said anything, to my knowledge.


Growing up with a younger brother that is bipolar, manic depressive and schizophrenic, I do hope AG gets it all worked out.
After years of seeing the head games that my brother played, you get to this point

Do you realize how many chances A Brown got? If he can make someone some money, he'll get a flyer.

Dimrod some people suffer with mental health issues for life regardless of the help they receive. You obviously have severe mental problems called lack of empathy, common trait of serial killers. Get help

Lawerence Philips drug a chic by the hair down a set of stairs and was drafted and played in the NFL.

Never put anything past the filth that runs the NFL and what they will touch or not touch.

I love how people use the “mental health” excuse to say it’s okay for being an a-hole. This guy shite on his teammates and LSU but you can’t say anything because it’s “mental health.”

He’s 3rd string for Georgia and didn’t even travel with the team this weekend. Such a waste of some generational talent at his position because he’s a headcase. No NFL team is going to touch him with a 10 foot poll.


Have you ever considered that, if you're right and he's a headache, he probably has more important issues than football?

I think it's obvious at this point that the stories of mental health issues are likely true. If so, what's the point of piling on the poor guy? Do you hope for his life to fall apart and hit rock bottom? Would that satiate your LSU fandom?

Couldn't adjust at LSU
Lasted about 3 weeks at Florida
Still can't adjust to Georgia??? Where he's from...

Maybe he should transfer back to high school and see if he has any eligibility left. Seems like that's the last place he was comfortable. Beyond Football I think this kid is just not cut out for college. He will never play a meaningful snap in football again. Idc if he shows out at the NFL combine either. He has some serious mental deficiencies. That actually is nothing to joke about. But if he can't adjust to life away from home I highly doubt he could move to a new city and play for an NFL franchise or handle his NFL salary. Seems like a lost cause until he can get some help.

When did he shite on LSU or his teammates? Where’s the quote? And idk why you’re putting mental health in quotes, he’s been diagnosed as bipolar. That is a very serious and real disorder that he’ll be dealing with his entire life

Show me a link with his actual psychiatric diagnosis. Bipolar has been mentioned by others but I’ve never seen an official statement from Gilbert or Georgia or LSU stating that. You have no idea what he is diagnosed with or if he is treated but you sit here making excuses for him. People are still responsible for their actions unless they are actively psychotic. I’ve never seen any evidence that Gilbert has psychotic symptoms.
