Whit hasn't been able to save Notebloom or Bobby Evans, so no.
Don’t confuse Note’s performance at G with his job at OT. He has been more than fine at LT. Granted, his run blocking could improve though.

Neither of those guys have close to the talent of Wilson, also, neither of them are head cases with shitty attitudes. They are limited by ability. I think its apples and oranges here.

Honestly I think our locker room is strong enough to sustain a risk such as this one....what damage can he really do? We have all universe Aaron Donald, Outspoken Jalen Ramsay, Respected Vet QB, and Respected LT Whit.....If he acts up those guys wont allow him to mess up the team and then we cut him....

Yeah, no. All though the thought of giving him vet minimum with no guarantees just so AD can abuse him day one of training camp and then cutting him sounds like fun.

You have to want help first. He thinks he is rich...for now he is. Won't last. Maybe then he wakes up?

The Lord Himself can't save Isaiah Wilson at this point in his career.

See, I think back to when I was 22. I was fucking stupid. The shit I was putting in my body, the shit I doing. By 24, I had completely turned it around. "This point in his career" is only a year in. He had plenty of time to turn it around. He may however, not have plenty of opportunity.

I think the difference with AB and Pacman was that they WANTED to play football even with all their horribleness and desire to play it how they want to play it.

I don't think Wilson really wants to play football. So nothing there to mentor.

So was I. The difference was that Wilson's an NFL player, and therefore, under much scrutiny. He's treated the entire experience as a joke and an excuse to party. He also had issues at Georgia, so this is on him. So far, he doesn't want to change, and the Rams shouldn't take that chance.

Good for you. That motivates me. I hope I can still turn things around, and get my shit together. I am sixty.

He's a fucking train wreck. Forget "bust"; bust is too nice of a word to call him.
Somethings like I said before you can't fix. Just hope he gets help before he hurts himself and/or others.

If you throw away where they were picked in the first, he's the biggest bust of all time. Lasted 10 months. DUI. High speed chase. Gunpoint arrest. Doesn't even like football it seems. Crazy partying. Tons of public Instagram innuendo of selling drugs. 4 snaps. 3 kneels. 1 PAT in which he was bowled over.

I don't want him even stepping foot near the Rams. Hell no. This guy needs legit professional and mental help, not Andrew Whitworth's.
