-Stealing an idea from the front page of this website, I was wondering who you guys think is going to have the biggest impact on the field for the Redskins.  I tried to list most of the guys, left out a few later rounds and UDFA's but feel free to specify if you feel one of them will have the largest impact.  

-I personally think it will be between Kelly or Davis, but I have to go with Kelly, only because I feel Chris Cooley is one of the stronger links on the team, in comparison with WR's on our offense.

I chose JT.  There is much need at the defensive back position, be it safety or corner.  I think he will shine in the secondary as the third corner.  Kelly and Thomas are expected to do well, so JT is my sleeper.

I'm going with Thomas in the vote. But I hope that the big 3 all have a good impact!

I really believe that Durant Brooks will make the most significant impact of all the Rookies.  Fact is that most rookie WR's typically do not jump right in and contribute in the NFL.  Don't get me wrong, they will do fine.  Davis will be a backup to Cooley and see some action in the double TE sets but his contributions will be marginal as well.  Rinehart and Tryon will be contributors on a backup level and will probably fill some holes as they season goes by as "fill ins".  Therefore, expect for rookie punter Durant Brooks to have the most significant impact during the course of the season.  I expect this guy to compete for a Pro Bowl spot throughout his career.

I would agree with you B if it was, a most consistent impact poll because I think that Durant should definitely get off some good punts but the largest impact will probably go to Kelly, who should give us the intermediate passing game and the  red-zone scoring that we are sorley in need of.

Brooks will certainly see the larger amount of touches.

Brooks is an interesting choice, and while your right he will probably see the most PT and play at a higher level (position based).  I think the Redskins real problem last season was a lack of redzone threats we pretty much had cooley, sellers, or up the gut with portis (dont know why we didn't run the sweep more).  Obviously this was pretty easy for teams to defend, but when you bring Davis in on two TE sets this will give us more options, and now we could even run a shotgun slot normal with Kelly in the slot which will also give us more options.

I went with Thomas mainly because of his size, speed and hands.  IMO he has all of the measurables and those are what we have been lacking, that big reeiver...

I really can't decide between Kelly or Brooks. I think Tryon has a shot too. Even Rinehart has a chance to start. I'm stumped. I think Thomas will need time to develop but will be a star eventually.

I agree, I think that Thomas is the biggest question mark out of the 3 second rounders but if he does work out he can be a very explosive receiver.

Why do you think Thomas is a question mark?

I would've like to see more than one good college season out of him. I think that he will be fine but he hasn't shown enough to be totally sure of what to think about him.

had to go with Brooks.  Frost is a bum so he should be the starter and I can't see any other rookie starting at this point.
