Another right back was always likely sooner rather than later, simply because our only player for that position (outlined as wanted by MA) is a loan player.
There was more uncertainty over LB after MA threw down the gauntlet around Xmas time, to the three players vying for that position, who are permanent members of the squad.
Max Melbourne has been in the press recently, talking about his future (uncertainty) at Lincoln.
Personally I expect him to leave in the Summer but there is maybe an unlikely but outside chance, if he does well at Walsall and Edun continues to develop in the Bridcutt role, he may just be invited to challenge Bramall for LB next season.
I can't see him being more than a squad player even if MA wanted to keep him and in those circumstances he may want to move on regardless.
MA could lose Melbourne and still have Walsh/Roughan/Jackson/Montsma for CB
Bramall/Edun/Roughan for LB
Bridcutt/Edun/Sanders for pivot DCM
That's still a good mixture of youth and experience for every position even if nobody else is retained or signed.
