My final project will be an expansion of a previous essay, “The Irony of Darwinism,” in which I argued that McKibben’s definitions of meaning were not rigorous and were portrayed in a manner that naturally aligned his audience with his biases. Additionally I may add some material from another essay “Socio-religious Evolution” as some parts of my argument were very similar. Primarily, I want to rigorously develop and in some instances correct my logical foundation, and move on to develop more of my own ideas, rather than analyzing others. Essentially I’ll build on my papers with more information and understanding. Sources I intend to use include McKibben, Silver and Joy. My counterarguments are obvious given my original papers included several.

I can't think of anything obviously wrong with the approach. I do think that your primary emphasis should be on expanding your critique of McKibben, and then seeing what larger conclusions you can draw from that critique (with the larger conclusions, perhaps, ultimately being worked into the thesis). Don't get too distracted by incorporating other material from the beginning.
