I think, of those four, Wheeler has the most upside, but that's only with proper coaching. He's built like a Cover 2 linebacker to be honest, but he's one of those guys who's a rockstar some plays and then is a liability on others. If you trust your coaching staff, Wheeler's a shoo-in.
Johnson would probably be my pick after that, but Benedict and Gooden are both pretty solid picks at this point. Benedict is versatile, tough as nails and plays with a mean streak. I like Gooden as a MLB prospect in the Cover 2, although I like Beau Bell better... I don't think I'd try the mutant theory you guys are suggesting where you shuffle everyone around. I'd give Gooden about 20 snaps a game at MLB this year and start him in 2009. He's got the ability, but he needs the mindset.
