He has a chance to be reinstated if he follows the same regimen he was required to follow last year.

I'm not giving up on him.

Too late.

Someone needed to teach him to man up a long time ago.

How many years can he do this. Time to cull him out of the herd. We'll never be able to depend on him.

He’s not reliable. Great if he comes back, but don’t bet on it.

Would be great if Taco actually did something.

Yeah, I hope he gets over his problem and has a nice life doing something else. No ill wishes for the young man, just don't want to deal w/ it any more.

Rely on him as much as an UDFA, because that's what his contract will be worth as an ERFA: a one year, non-guaranteed, league minimum contract. UDFAs that get a $5k signing bonus will be paid more than Gregory.

If we can get him for 2019 and resign Lawrence we will be fine.

But for the 2020 draft, we should definitely draft a DE in round 1. Possibly even move up to get the guy we want.

Signing him Seems most problematic. If we can't sign him or trade him, I'd let him walk, save the money, and look elsewhere. As for gregory, sayonara. Enough is enough. Sooner or later his yearly lapses will create a locker room problem.

Become a role model and not an example in other words

This goes way beyond football. Bi-polar disorder and substance use is no joke. I am glad the Cowboys are trying to help him but counting on him to play next year is very slim. I hope I am wrong but the odds are not good. It is ok for the Cowboys to help him but first Gregory needs to want the help.

 

[Creeper]

I commend the Cowboys for wanting to help Gregory get well, but in terms of the team and football, he is unreliable. Giving up on him as a man would be a bad thing, but giving up on him as a football player is something else and it may be necessary for Gregory's long term health.

Gregory is about as reliable as a hooker is to keep her legs closed.

Oops, not trying to offend anyone here. I think I meant to refer to her as a "pleasure for pay provider"

Weed is not substance abuse by any means. The only reason this is even a story is because the NFL's policy on weed. Gregory uses weed to cope like so many others. But if he was cramming prescription pills down his throat like big pharma wants, no one would bat an eye.

 

[Verdict]

If Gregory has even the slightest chance of playing this upcoming year it signals a serious shift in thinking about mental health issues and/or weed by the NFL. It sounds like that may be the way this is heading.

I do think Gregory and Irving are very different. Irving is just a thug life type of guy while Gregory seems to have legitimate mental health issues.

I wish the NFL would take weed off their list bs.

While I've no desire to "hit the click" in reading the discerning signs of the chicken entrails,,, and,,, although, I have been a previously stalwart #94 wagon pusher, I am of an elavated level of interest as to just exactly what some people deem the word "indefinite" actually defines in this particular vernacular of utilized verbiage concercerning this most unfortunate& untimely of issues,,,


*as you'll easily notice, I was clad in my entire wardrobe of tweed-wear while conducting this queried imput , for conducting my part is required in gainful forum participation amongst my fellow members


** y'all know that in the world of passive system nightscoped platforms, our ol' #94 will forever (until what the league tests for is reformed) be gunning with an infra-red active system,,,he don't stand a chance of staying on the battlefield& thats a fact
