Gentlemen,

I feel it is my duty to write this memo concerning the alarming situation that faces us in the 2009 off-season. Looking around the league, I see many teams placing their hope in young stars at the quarterback position (Buffalo, Denver) and I see teams struggling with the busted hope of a former draft pick (Tennessee, Arizona). One thing is certain, that the league is facing a crisis at the quarterback position.

Wisconsin senior linebacker Jonathan Casillas was cited for drunken driving last month while riding a mo-ped.

Casillas, who missed the eighth-ranked Badgers' first two games because of a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee, was stopped by a university police officer on Aug. 24 just after midnight. A breath test showed his blood alcohol concentration to be 0.15 percent, nearly twice the legal limit of 0.08.

Casillas, 21, received three citations -- first-offense drunken driving, driving with a prohibited alcohol concentration, and driving with two persons on a mo-ped.

According to the Wisconsin State Journal, Badgers coach Bret Bielema said he already has disciplined Casillas.

"We handled that the same way as any alcohol or drug [violation]," Bielema, who did not give additional details, told the newspaper.

Bielema said the case does not fall under the UW student-athlete discipline policy.

Casillas is scheduled to appear in court on the citations on Friday. Wisconsin (3-0) has this weekend off before visiting Michigan on Sept. 27.

This question is surely going to be overplayed this season, but what does SBNation say?

If you were starting a franchise tomorrow, who are you taking?
