Strengthening the middle of your line is always a good move and it seems that they need to move Marshall outside. They have to at least bring a starting quality MLB to compete for the spot.

Yeah, I've been saying for awhile that Marshall needs to be moved back outside. Undersized MLBs can be effective. Antonio Pierce and Jonathon Vilma are prime examples. I don't think Marshall is physical enough to take on the interior lineman that scrape to the MLB. He and Rocky can compete for Holdman's vacated spot on the weakside, where Lemar excelled in place of Lavar back in 2004.
The linebacker play has to be shored up, and I think Patrick Willis could be a very fitting solution. But I think that Alan Branch could do more for this team than Willis and another player could and if hes there at 6, thats where we have to go. MLB can be fixed, at least temporarily, through free agency provided we get the right guy.
