We've now signed up 2 of our rookies to play next year (Cox, Thomas), presumably to be on the senior list. Assuming we're going to take Tyler Brown as a late pick, we've met our 3 player obligation for this draft. Thoughts on trading our picks in to next year? How much of a risk would you be prepared to take?
Some examples:
Trade 36 to Brisbane for their 3rd next year, take 6 to the draft
Trade 36 to Geelong for their 2nd next year, take 6 to the draft
Trade 6(+maybe 36) to Richmond for 17 + 1st next year
Trade 6(+maybe 36) to Melbourne for 27 + 1st next year
Trade 6 to Hawthorn for their 1st next year
Trade 6 to Adelaide for 16 and their 1st next year
Some are risky, some aren't. Most depend on how strong you see next year's draft compared with this one, weighed against our need to get new players in and developing. I guess the club will make their thoughts more known after the Copeland (Friday) with delistings etc, so might be going a little early here...
