With Morrison available for a 3rd rd pick and with Denver cutting Davis it seems one or both of these guys would help.

D. Williams was the leading tackler. Problem is very few of those were quality tackles (at the line of scrimage or tackles for a lose. Now that could improve with better Dl play to keep the guards and tackle off him but that has yet to be proved. C. Mays is a backup and good special teams player. Dj can be a super star if he learns the disapline to cover his assigned ares every down.
Great teams are not bought but built. Lets look at what we have befor we spend money on something we dont need. Many dont like Cory Mays, but he had a breakout season last year. Befor last year he had only started 1 game. We also have good young backers. Belcher is going to be a great player in the NFL. Have we forgotten about Studebaker already. We have strong young players and coaching staff, known for player development. Not sure our needs are at LB are all that desperate. One other thought I will leave you with is these players are not being let go by other teams because they are pro bowlers.
Dont sell Danials short. I wouldnt have Cutler if it were my team. 90% of QB's are a product of systems and the players around them. Look how much better Orten was last year in new system and different team. Look at how poor Cutler played in his new home. Dont believe the hype of the briliant anallists. Cutler is not great, he is average. And mayby Danials is just smarter than Herm Edwards and Carl Peterson. Maybe he is just getting ride of a problem child while he can still get a #1 pick for him, instead of paying him a big contract and being a failing destraction for the team and has to be cut mid season and get nothing for him. How many would like to go back 2 years and trade LJ for a #1 pick?
I hope we draft linebackers. Pioli knows his linebackers, drafting atleast one would really help i think. Then sign Joey Porter to get pressure on the QB
Just one more thing. DJ is a good backer and think he is just getting comfortable with the new system and has a place on our team. But dont let your hearts fool your minds. If he was all that and a bag of chips, why is noone jumping on him? You would think if he was so great, at least the Saints would give up the 32nd pick for a great young starting linebacker like DJ.
