Casillas was charged with a DUI for driving intoxicated on his moped.

i saw that and it made me
too...but, in all honesty, if this guy can get healthy and clean up his act (if he really has alleged "character issues"), I think he could make an impact similar to the one Dunbar made last year...

yup, he does look legit. That was just too funny to pass up. Hopefully another turnaround like Nicks... problem child to stud.

Casillas is going to be my new Onome Ojo.
I'm making this guy my new favorite saint

Strengths:
Great athleticism...Excellent speed and quickness with a burst...Has sideline-to-sideline range...Doesn't get hung up in traffic...Smooth and fluid...Is able to match up in coverage...Fantastic in pursuit...Reliable tackler...A team leader...Special teams potential...A ton of experience.
Weaknesses:
Severely undersized...Not very strong or powerful...Struggles to take on and shed blockers...Lacks top instincts and awareness...Slow to read and react...Not much of a pass rusher...Health / Durability issues.
Notes:
A three-year starter for the Badgers...Played extensively in a backup capacity as a true freshman...Started every single game in 2006 and 2007...Was cited for a DUI on a moped in 2007...Missed the first two games of the 2008 season after suffering an MCL sprain...Played through the injury as a senior but eventually underwent surgery to repair the damage which knocked him out of the Champs Sports Bowl, the Senior Bowl and really hindered him throughout the pre-Draft process...Could also be looked at as a safety prospect...Won't interest everyone and is limited in terms of his schematic versatility...Profiles as a weakside linebacker at the next level...Will have to land with a team that emphasizes speed and athleticism and will overlook his size.

Williams is blitz happy so speed is important.

From his video it looks like he is a good tackler. Very rare for a Saint.
