There was speculation that clubs would be reluctant to trade 2021 picks due to the strength of next year's draft. The trades to date don't really show that to be the case.

Yeah 26 and 33 we can maybe give them a future 4th
They can trade it as they've traded back in picks with the Dogs and Lions.So Melbourne's future 1st is out of play unless they trade back in to the later rounds?
The stats I quoted the other day were from draftcentral. Sorry, can't access it from the daytime computer to paste a link. They have a table but it only has quite broad ranges of picks. I agree, the probabilities of getting x games at draft pick y would surely slide within those ranges.Can't argue with that, but I think it's worthwhile considering a couple of other perspectives:
- the picks give us the currency we need to potentially trade up and get that 12th (or 14th, if we trade with WB) best player.
- even if we don't, it's not as absolute as that to say the 12th best player is better than the 26th or 33rd best player. Fair chance they will all be a bust, but a pick 12 might give us a 25% chance of a 200 gamer, pick 26 a 20% chance and pick 33 a 15% chance. (I have no idea what the actual odds are there, but someone did do some stats on that - RobZombie ?) So, overall, the extra picks might be better as it gives us more bites at the cherry.
