I tend to think it all comes down to how these guys shoot. They each offer something intriguing amid their flaws. They can probably all function as a replacement 9th man in the Jazz's 9-man rotation on occasion, depending on who's missing any particular game. As with Oni, the Jazz can cover up the flaws in that role. But unless they can be trusted to shoot, they'll be exposed in a bigger role and they're not likely to get regular rotation minutes.
I think it comes down to shooting for Forrest, but everyone else is a solid and willing shooter. I think it comes down to how aggressive they are and how they are able to assert themselves to make plays and not just be a background player.

Trent looked like he could shoot last night.
 
I watched Forrester off the ball last night. He was rotating well and in position often and looked like he was feeling more comfortable. Before it always felt to me like he was lost or at least two steps slow. Funny how the Kings have a way of making everyone look good!
 
Loved Forrest's body language and presence on the court last night. You can tell he's not just a player - there's definitely stuff going on behind the eyeballs with this guy.
He looked good last night. I want to see what he does when good teams hug shooters... see if he can finish around the basket. He has been so-so on defense but was good last night. Got stuck on one screen but corrected it rest of the game.

He's like the Howard Eisley without the 3pt shooting

He's clearly bigger and stronger than Eisley ever was. Will probably be a better and more versatile defender.

But yeah, his ceiling is decent back up point guard which are pretty much a dime a dozen at the end of the day.

But it looks like The Jazz found an NBA player and locked him up on the cheap - which is cause for celebration considering how The Jazz acquired him.
