Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023
Doesn’t matter. They parted with 194 DPs. By GWS not bidding they save about 400 DPs, even if North bid.

Hard to know but it seems to be a bad deal for North.

North currently have 2,3 and 23.
Perhaps they are not intending to use any more than that but will look for mature agers to fill the list.
Yes it does, which is why I asked the question GVG.
Even if they weren't using the pick, as Bulldog Joe has suggested, it still seems like they've sold it for too little - they likely could have got a future third rounder couldn't they?

The answer is yes and it’s pretty average collusion.
They’re going to pick Boomer Harvey’s kid with their last pick, so wanted to trade out of a pick they don’t have to use for an asset in next year’s draft.
Even if the logic is sound it still feels like cents on the dollar. Feel like one of the good teams would’ve given up a future 3rd but what do I know.

Recruiters who have spoken publicly seem to be thinking that next year's draft is going to be strong, so I can imagine that makes every pick from next year worth more than it otherwise would.

It does feel a stretch. I mean Freos fourth rounder will likely be a pick in the mid 60s to 70s.
