AMINI SILATOLU, G, Carolina Panthers

Silatolu was a highly regarded draft pick out of tiny Midwestern State, landing with the Panthers in the second round in 2012. He started 15 games that rookie year, but only 13 since as he’s battled a number of injuries. He’s currently recovering from a torn ACL suffered last November, and wouldn’t be 100% healthy heading into training camp.

The Seahawks had him in for a visit, likely drawn to his experience at left guard, his youth, and his combination of size (6’4″, 315) and upside. He could still be on their radar.
