Excuse me?
This is like "that depends on the definition of is".
Tyson Jackson is not an impact player, period, nor has he made an immediate impact. The defense has not improved over last year.
Alex Magee has made no impact. Say what you will but Charles and to some extent Cottam impacted the Chiefs positively last year.
If the Chiefs had taken Knowshon Moreno, Percy Harvin, Jeremy Maclin, Michael Crabtree or even Michael Oher, the Chiefs would have seen immediate impact.
Tyson Jackson's position is as such that it'll never make an impact. The other guys in Magee, Washington, Brown, Lawrence, Williams and O'Connell haven't had any impact, either.
For a team that was 2-14 last year with an extremely young roster, I fully expected Pioli to choose players that could make a difference and make an immediately impact.
So far, that has not been the case.
