Double the floor joist and you shouldn't have any problems. Run them the full length from wall to wall.

The distance between the LVL and wall is much longer than in the sketch. Also there are all kind of water pipes and heating ducts between those joins so running more joins won't be an option.

How long is the yellow, diagonal beam you will put in?
I think that is a good idea, but length matters. And then, depending on the length, the depth of the diagonal has to be deep enough to carry the weight.
Probably two 2x8s
But I am guessing at this point. There are tables for that info
