Tackle of non-ball carrier

A question on the part 2 test got me thinking.

What is the call for a defender tackling an opponent who is obviously not a ball carrier? On the test it said it was defensive holding. Is this right?

Also as a side question... At what point, if any, do you call a penalty on a defender who hits a "soon to be receiver" behind the LOS? Obviously because it is behind the LOS it can't be DPI, but can it be other things (like holding, illegal contact, etc)?
