I'm not a massive fan of any of the guys proposed in this years draft, we need a high quality outside running mid with some size and speed, and none of them seem to fit this bill.
Ive not been to a live game of course, so others will know better than me, but... I like Gresham, great skills, but very short and we have a few players like him in Sincs and Stevens. Both Tucker and Ah Chee have both not come on as midfielders and I'm sick of us picking players we will make into mids. Balic looks slow (and not in a Pendlebury way) and indirect. And Matho, while I like the lad, seem to be something we already have a lot of, and he may not get to our pick.
For me, this make L. Weller the perfect choice for us if we can get him. He is classy and exactly what we want. And as for this "we will get him next year cheaper" business; if this trade period has shown anything, its that - with future trading - cheap out of contract players will not be cheap anymore, and if you can get him now for a good price, you should. This also allows us not to spend a first round pick on him next year, we will not have a second round pick, and if you think the Dockers will give him to us for a third, no way! So getting Weller this year allows us to use our first pick next year and the following years first to land a big fish.
I say get him now if you can, lets not get crazy greedy!
