Like I wrote, it's just a thought. So what do you think?

You really want to know what I think.
Check the price of 2x4s over 2X6's .
They are cheaper and then you can put in the 45 degree braces and they will be stronger than the 2x6's for less money.
The only reason you would want to use a 2x6 in this application is if you were going to walk on them.
