I voted for the WR spot too.
Mainly because I see it as the tightest of all the competitions. Jacobs and McCants are both very talented WR's but are still on the raw side in terms of experience. Thrash isn't anywhere as talented but the guy works his butt off and that will win him some points with this staff.
The RB battle could also be interesting if Betts gets nicked up early. McCullough is definitely an interesting prospect as far as his skills go. I wouldn't rule out Cartwright just yet either, but he seems to be on the outside track and since Gibbs doesn't utilize the FB very much, RB is Rock's best shot at making the team. If Betts can stay healthy he should have the inside track. But that's a big if.
Bowen and Iffy should have a good battle to start opposite Taylor, but it's kind of a ho-hum battle to me. Neither player really excites me as they are both have their own limits.
At H-back, who knows? At this point it really seems up in the air, once camp gets going we'll have a better idea of how things will shake out.
