I went with Vita Vea. I know that the team could desperately use some serious talent at LB, but I think of the 3 options listed, Vea has the most "instant star" potential.
Admittedly, I didn't watch much UW football this season. However, I did catch their bowl game, and noticed Vea immediately. What first caught my eye was a special team's play. For such a huge man, he is FAST. Not only did he run down field with the greatest of ease, the way he controlled his body in space and made the play on the return man was amazing. I continued to watch him after that, and the guy has a pretty serious mean streak to go along with that athletic ability.
Having a guy like Vea, to pair with Geno up front? That would be a nightmare for OCs to plan for. Who ya gonna double team? That would also dramatically improve the appearance of whomever we had behind them at LB.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
