Panthers sign DT Soliai; 2 yrs, $7M

[jdpanther5]

Another recent Falcon.

If we re-signed Kyle Love our DT rotation would be nasty.

He was a solid role player in Miami for quite some time.  Could be a very good move.

[Cary Kollins]

He looks old

Finally some news...Panthers are officially entering FA.  Gradkowski doesn't count

[PantherWake]

He would be a good depth signing

[Kuech the Sneak]

DL depth at both positions really needed to be addressed in free agency, I'm sure everyone would feel more comfortable if we got another DE before the draft as well

Sign that fat man

Jason Jones could be someone to watch.  He's been a guy who's good and produces but just not someone identifiable as a long term starter.  Johnson, Ealy, & Addison are the only for sures in our rotation and Addison is situational/passing downs.  Cox/Miley/Delaire/Horton are competing and it'd be very nice to get someone to push that group even more.

Interesting. BIG DT wasn't fit w/Quinn's system in ATL. RT @Rand_Getlin: I'm told defensive tackle Paul Soliai is visiting the #Panthers.

 

how much will he want?

 

[L-TownCat]

I'd take it.

Good question.  He will get about $4m from the birds over the next 2 years, I am guessing he will be offered a 2-year, $5m deal. It will be interesting to see.  This is Star depth (so if we sign him, Love looks to be gone).  In addition, it may be a hint that we draft a 3 tech DT.

I thought Love was a good mixture of both Star and KK.
