Defo skewed on Grlj based on links to us rather than his true rankings against the rest of the class. Had a good year no doubt and obviously brings some very desirable AFL traits to any team that takes him, but you don’t reach at the top end of the draft Spesh early in a rebuild. If we are pushing up the ladder / contending and we have specific holes in our list then by all means draft for need but at this point our whole list is a hole.
Taylor has steadily risen up the boards, I take that as showing steady natural improvement throughout his U18 year as opposed to Robey who has just exploded in the last few months.
Sharp is still a bizarre one to me, I think he was touted as no.1 pick in the last couple of years and while his performances have been consistently at the top level, I get the sense that clubs just don’t think he has much more room for growth beyond what he is now and that the game is moving away from the pure in and under contested midfielder type and now prioritises hybrid mid/fwds or mids that can spread from stoppages.
