I said Donte “Action” Jackson. One I think he plays from day oneand will be adequate as a rookie. And he will take over  TD58’s role of chirping at Cam quite nicely. I love this kid so far. Spartanburg gonna be fun. 

I think Jackson will stick to his guy like glue, but the only knock on him (other than size) is that he doesn't create a lot of turnovers. For that reason, I'll go with Moore, he'll make a lot more flashy plays, and end up on more high light reels. Unless Olsen gets hurt (heaven forbid), and Thomas gets promoted, he won't get an opportunity to shine as much, but he'll end up being the best value of our draft.

I disagree your going on assumption of Shula’s playcalling. Thomas is going to be heavily involved  in the offense and I see him having the same type of impact Olsen had when we traded for him in 2011.

 

I hope he does, but that won't be enough to make a bigger impact than Moore or Jackson, IMO. In 2011, Olsen had 540 yards and 5 TD's while Shockey had 455 yards and 4 TD's. I expect Moore to get more than that. And, right now it looks like Jackson will be on the field on the vast majority of the defensive snaps, giving him more opportunity to make an impact (the QB's will pick on the undersized rookie).
