NFC South: Atlanta Falcons

Roddy White’s time in Atlanta has run its course and it’s time for him to move on.  I’d send him to the Miami Dolphins to play the No. 2 role to Mike Wallace in exchange for Brian Hartline. Hartline brings a similar skill set and much less baggage to the Falcons and would provide an element of veteran leadership in a locker room looking for more leaders.

We’d also be shedding a sizable contract belonging to an aging receiver that runs through 2017. Really, regardless of who the Falcons acquire to replace him, losing White would be addition by subtraction any way you look at it.
