Did you know....
 
Did anyone realize that both Martez Wilson and Jonathan Casillas were both the No.1 fastest linebackers timed at their NFL combines?

I didn't. It doesn't seem to be helping Casillas any so far...

I here you, but If not for him spearing Hanks Baskett on the ground Chris Reis would have never got a handle on the onsides kick and that's a fact. I can't talk bad about the man. I hope he gets going this year.

Casillas, Vilma, Wilson trio...

I have a great feeling about Cassillas. If he didn't get hurt last year I think the dude would have rocked it!!! 10 tackles in one half? I know it was pre season which makes it even more impressive.

I'm pulling for Casillas - big time. Along with Arnoux and all of our rookies. I pinch myself every time I think about our last few drafts.

Casillas is one of Triple G's favorite players. He says he loves to watch him practice, but he would really love to see him play a lot more for a change.

I knew that about both of those players. That is why I am rooting for the Vilma, Casillas, Wilson trio at LB for the Saints so hard this year! Can you say "Fastest LB Corps in the League"?

He got released for failing his physical. Have you heard anything more about that at all? Wonder if his Achilles is still giving him problems or what?

Yes, he was cut due to him injuring his Achilles again. At least that's what I heard.

Does anyone remember that the scouts also said Martez has the wingspan of a 747, likely the largest in the draft. He'll be swatting balls down from TEs even from 3 yards away. I'm super excited about him tbh, he looks like a stud (no homo).

I'm really like Wilson, I heard Nate Bussey is showing promise too.

saintsfan601 08-01-2011 05:33 PM

Man I can't wait to see this years defense. Its going to be one of the best defenses we have ever had.

Danno 08-01-2011 05:47 PM

Just think, our OLB speed could be going from a couple of 4.80 guys to
Casillas - 4.45 speed
Wilson - 4.42 speed

Speed kills.:p
