Wellingham is worth a late first round pick at best.
Very early 2nd round pick at worst.
The problem is WCE first is pick 17/18 which about right and their next pick is 38 which is far too skinny.

There's talk they hope to get a pick in the 20s for Stevens but even then, Wellingham is worth more than Stevens in a trade.

Their first pick is reasonable and fair.

oh and as for Sharrod's manager- 3rd rounder- lol.

If the manager is saying third round is it fair to assume that's what WC are thinking ?

If so we are way off coming up with a fair trade. We should stick with their first rounder and not budge at all.

Wellingham's manager is obviously going to want him to appear as practically worthless so there's more chance of the deal happening. Fair enough I suppose.

Not going to change anything as far as we're concerned.

I doubt Bucks & Co will do a Ross Lyon, if WCE don't budge on a first round, he'll go cheap.

Saying 3rd round is nuts. Especially if they think they will get a pick in the 20's for Kobe Stevens.....
Wellingham is 10 times better than Stevens.
Wellinghams manager is a ******* piece of shit scumbag!

Then again...we do have short memories aka Luke Ball
We busted our arse to get a trade with St Kilda, but they wouldn't take it. Was that absolute best we could do. Can't blame the club for that.

In the end, St Kilda brought in Lovett on top dollar and expected Ball to play for peanuts. Worked out well for them.
