There hasn't been a lot of talk about teams pitching Roddy White or William Moore, but Paul Soliai ability to clog the middle has earned him at least one suitor that we all hate.
Former Falcons and Dolphins DT Paul Soliai is visiting Carolina Panthers today, per source.

Soliai was released not because he lacked value, but because the Falcons could save a frankly preposterous amount of money by doing so, and because Soliai was somewhat of a one-dimensional player. On Carolina's great defensive line, Soliai will serve as a two down run-stopping tackle to complement Kawann Short and Star Lotuleilei. It's probably not his ideal landing spot if he wants lots of playing time, but he'll have a legitimate shot at a ring if he winds up with the Panthers.
The Falcons, meanwhile, have a solid set of defensive tackles at the moment and will probably fare pretty well without Soliai, though that's contingent on both Grady Jarrett and Ra'Shede Hageman taking steps forward in 2016.
Me? I'd prefer he went elsewhere, because I think he's still a quality player. Perhaps the AFC.
