If you are of the belief that getting a player like James Laurinaitis or ReyMaualuga to play the MIKE would allow DeMeco to play the WILL, then that might be a different matter altogether.

Ok, first let me back track about Mays. Perhaps I don't give him enough credit in stopping the deep pass. Pete Carroll giving an interview to the Daily Breeze on 12 Dec. made a point about there not being many plays made deep while Mays has been patrolling the center field. Maybe, Mays could be as good as LaRon Landry, I just haven't seen him play enough to make that determination.
Secondly, I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to moving DeMeco to the WLB. I just don't see that as being a move that would be made by this coaching staff. Remember when Diles was the backup MLB? I would like to see the Pitt MLB Scott McKillop drafted in the 4th or 5th round to add to the LB mix. He could allow Ryans to play WLB, if the coaches were wanting to go that route.
Currently, I have not made up my mind one way or the other as to which position needs to be addressed in the 1st round.
