Sharpest and smallest lens for T1i?

What might qualify as the smallest, lightest, yet sharpest lens for use on my T1i DSLR?

I recently sold off all of my m4/3rds gear in an effort to concentrate more on my DSLR gear....which I was using more often anyway. I'm looking for a small-ish prime lens in the 20mm to 50mm focal range, as a smaller, less obvious walkaround lens.

What's your recommendation. I currently have a Tamron 17-50 2.8, 50 1.8(this might be your answer to my question), and a 70-200/4 IS(which I may consider selling for a Canon 70-300 "L" lens. Would you?). Thanks for your opinions and feedback.
