Hudson has done well catching the ball, his blocking is not remotely up to par and I dont see him having TE1 capability. All and Tanner could potentially grow into a TE1 in the future.
Gesicki and Sample will take the majority of the snaps. All will definitely get snaps. Hudson, in the beginning of the season, could be more beneficial for a limited number of snaps early but I think McLachlan could be a huge plus for us for the next several years.
Here in lies the debate of win now vs extending the window. We're not talking the Rams all in plan of trading picks, but if the talent is close do you arm yourself for 17+ games with known depth or not risk losing possible cheap youth? If they think All is near Hudson's level and is healthy, that may tip it to a Hudson cut. I just don't want to see Gesicki get hurt and us depending on All or McLachlan fill in if they aren't ready.
