This is a VERY strange class in that I really think almost everybody contributes right away.
Chris Jones - looks like an immediate difference making player
KeiVarae Russel - probably would be in competition for starting spot if he signed on time.
Parker Ehinger - day 1 starter at LG
Eric Murray - sub package "starter"
Demarcus Robinson - hasn't came on yet.
Kevin Hogan - development QB
Tyreek Hil - will be the day 1 punt returner and I think he starts the year as the #3 WR.
DJ White - has played well in PS and might carve out a role that gets him playing time.
Dadi Nichols - undeniable talent in this kid. Has a chance to be pretty good once he adds a little weight. Should be used as pass rush specialist while Houston is out. Just flies around the field and has natural pass rush talent.
I know it's early, but this rookie class has a good chance to be pretty damn special.

What makes you think Russell is ready to play. Not trying to be a dick, I'm just curious because I've barely heard his name.
