If the Hawks win the flag, it will be pick ~20

Deals definitely aren’t done. We’re looking to spread the load over two drafts, and not put all our eggs into this years basket. Don’t be surprised if the Bolton and Rioli deals include future first round picks.

As is the case with any sort of investment it is best to not put all your eggs in one basket. My concern would be that freos and gold coasts picks next year will be worse though, so it will be interesting to see

Do we have any idea what 2025 draft will look like?

The consistent opinion is that 2024 is a DEEP draft. Could easily pick up half a dozen good players if we nail our picks.

Regardless we should be taking 3 1st round picks in each of 24-25.

Looks like pick 3 will be involved for Baker.

Care to elaborate a little ? Only way I see this happening is giving up 6&9

Yep, which we should be wary of. I'd keep 6.

If we manage to get 9+10 for Bolton, those are the two I'd consider trading to get 3.

Draft with 1, 3, 6 to get our night started.

I’m super wary of investing too heavily in this draft, every year people say it’s deep or shallow or whatever and every year there’s a handful of guns.

Picks 1&3 are a good start but no certainty.

I’d definitely entertain baker+9+10 for pick 3 and eagles future 1st

We still have pick 1,3,6 and whatever other picks we ends up with this year and our first and eagles next years first too.

I’d be surprised if eagles parted with 3 though.

They won't part with 3.

They're rebuilding.

Pick 9 and 10 for 3. Wouldn't do it top 10 super even.
