Article mentions that Akii Smith is the top JUCO linebacker we're looking at. Here's some film on him:

Gardner, Montgomery, and Smith would be a great class of linebackers!

I think landing a mix of experienced and young talent makes a lot of sense. Losing Zach and Will will hurt but Derek will be back to take over in the middle and hopefully the Oregon transfer Wallace will make an impact.. I thought Skladany specifically mentioning Marshall says that they see him fitting in the plans as well, perhaps on the outside. I gotta give Mac credit, I think Skladany was a good hire and is a very good coach. He understands what it will take to win.
