We are way deep in Mids. If he would consider staying at LB, then maybe. In all, it’s hard to really know what FO is thinking other than “backs who join attack more.” There are many ways to do that. I would assume Sigi’s arrow is still the formation of choice, so a high LB or RB is probably more likely than a speed demon wing-back. Without knowing what they are thinking, we can only guess which D would fit the bill.

Dave – I don’t totally understand this " Phase One of the Re-Entry Draft would be at his option number (between 0-10% of his 336k 2011 contract)" … does that mean 90%-110% of $335?…so, no less than $301,500? Do you think Seattle has interest in him? Do you think Seattle has $300k interest in him? If not, do you think they would be a Round Two suitor at a lower number? (assuming no one bites at his current number)

whether he really, really wants to play Left Mid or if he really wants to play one position in the starting XI and to be involved in the attack. It sounds like his big gripe was never knowing if or where he would be playing week to week. Obviously, if he wants to play at midfield, it’s unlikely we would have room for him (barring major moves). But, if he wants to become the attacking LB of Sigi’s dreams, he would seem to be a big upgrade from Wahl and Leo’s perfectly serviceable combo back there.

but if we could snag him in the 2nd rd for around 200k it might be worth it. It really all depends on Rosales new cap hit(dp or not), if we go after a 3rd DP (most likely a fwd), and who we don’t resign. I see that we need to sign 2 FB, 1 GK, and 1 FW and that is imo going to take 400k-700k in cap room to upgrade those positions. Im curious if the FO is going to try and sign a 3rd DP around 20-21 yo to minimize cap hit. Should be an interesting offseason.
