LB pickup help

hello,
i have a few options to pick up at LB this week.  it's a fairly balanced IDP league with 1.5/0.75 for tackles and sack=3, FF=3, int=4 where we start 2 LBs max.

currently I have Cushing and Brandon Marshal rostered, but I'm looking to drop Cushing (he did not look great last night and hasn't been consistent in general, also his upcoming schedule is not great) and add another in addition.

my current options (in order that I happen to like them -- i'm also considering up coming byes) are:

Mychal Kendricks (coming back form calf injury)
Curtis Lofton
Chad Greenway --> bye week 10
Dont'a Hightower --> bye week 10
Koa Misi
Sio Moore
Nigel Bradham --> bye week 9
Thomas Davis --> bye week 12
Vincent Rey
Khalil Mack

thoughts, opinions?

thanks!

Re: LB pickup help

I like your top 3 picks...Lofton is averaging 7 tackles per week.  He doesn't get big plays, but he is a consistent LB 3 with LB 2 upside and he's already had his bye week.  I like Greenway and he has a history of producing LB 1 numbers if he can stay healthy.  Minnesota's defense should be on the field a lot, but I still like Lofton better.  I'm trying to pick Hightower up this week...I lost Mayo and Jenkins has struggled the last two weeks, so I'm trying to land Hightower or Rey to get me through the bye weeks.
