Quote:When has Caldwell brought in a guy with character issues?
 

I wouldn't assume "violation of team rules" always equates to character issues.

 

From what I gather, he's had academic struggles.

<p style="font-size:16px;color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:'proxima-nova', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;margin-left:40px;">No players were selected in each of the past two Supplemental Drafts but Caldwell could draw interest after dominating the Gulf South Conference last season - his first at that level - to the tune of 18.5 tackles for loss and 12 sacks.

<p style="font-size:16px;color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:'proxima-nova', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;margin-left:40px;">Caldwell, an Atlanta, Ga. native, originally signed with Illinois as a four star recruit. After redshirting in 2011, he played in all 12 games a year later, recording 17 tackles, including five for loss and 2.5 sacks. He also forced and recovered a fumble.

<p style="font-size:16px;color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:'proxima-nova', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;margin-left:40px;">Academic issues forced him out of the Big Ten in 2013, however, and Caldwell landed at Pearl City Community College, where despite only posting 12 tackles and four tackles for loss, he earned an offer from Arizona State and was hyped as a possible replacement at Devil-backer for Carl Bradford, a 2014 fourth round pick of the Green Bay Packers. Academics once again pushed Caldwell out, however, and he ultimately wound up at West Georgia, where he recorded 69 total tackles and led the conference in sacks.
