From what we know as of today I would say that Jarrad Davis has the best combination of safe floor and upside, given that they seem to have handed him an everydown MIKE role right from first snap, with Myles Jack as my number two amongst these. I like both of those quite a bit. The next tier for me would be Brandon Marshall and Reggie Ragland. As for the rest of the players there are a fair bit of question marks; veterans that might get a smaller role, players with limited roles, rookies with unpredictable roles for 2017, and some players that are just not very good.

 
I agree that I think Davis is easily the best pick of those listed at this point.  He will be the guy and should put up good numbers.....I mean Whitehead was serviceable there last year and Davis is a better player.  I also like Jack, Perryman, and Ragland but they all have questions of some sort. 

 
Jarad Davis by a mile for me.  Don't sleep on Perryman, he's playing MIKE this year and should get off clean a lot more often.
