I wont comment on Beams but given that you mention Reid, Dunn, Shazz and Goldsack in one breathe and ignoring Moore's last year I dont understand why Roughead isnt seem as sensible backup.
I rate Roughead behind that whole group as a KPP. I don't see any viability in him as a KPP. It's something he hasn't ever done to an AFL standard.
If used as a forward, he doesn't find enough of it, isn't much of a target and doesn't hit the scoreboard, so he's basically your average state leaguer up forward.
Down back he's poor 1v1, leaks goals and is not much of an intercepter or rebounder as a spoil first defender.
Ruck is the only position even as depth I see Roughead with his followup stuff and work around the ground while not on Grundy's level and probably areas Moore could cover him in if he played ruck, the areas that make him passable through there where you'd say he could be a depth option if needed.
