I think they're leaning toward moving McIntosh toward the strong-side as one option. They also liked what they saw out of Alfred Fincher toward the end of last year (and Matt Sinclair last summer) but neither is more than a special-teamer most likely.

If you are going to go LB with the 13th pick, only Maualuaga or Matthews make sense. Getting Cushing would have to involve trading back.

I can agree with Maualuga, but I don't think Matthews is a #13 pick. I like him, think he's got potential to be a solid player in the league but 13 is too high for him.

Maualuga would be awesome at this point but then we've got to address RT in FA. Things are starting to look very tight IMO.

... as to Fincher he has Marcus' attitude on the field. In preseason he was insanely pumped... i just don't know whether he can be the guy. It would be sooooooooo nice for diamond to come out of the rough in this scenario. Aren't we do anyhow?

I don't think we're due for a diamond in the rough on defense. Chris Horton ring a bell?
