List Mgmt. 2024 GWS Giants List Management - Academy, Free Agent, Trade & Draft

[Orange Agent]

Second time for Wehr, I don't really get it because I thought he started this year as a rookie.

Maybe Derksen goes to the main list, might be better trade wise come end of 2025.

Would we try and move 37 in front of the smith bid?

I assume there's a decent chance that we will. Probably only need to move it into the low 30s, but of course, the problem of that is what we would need to "pay" in terms of draft capital to do such a small move. Alternatively, we simply wait and see if he gets bid before our pick. Presumably we would have another club primed for a trade to make the best of that situation. I think it's probably 50/50 or 60/40 to moving ahead.

Maximum 3 years on the rookie list. I hadn't checked, but his time is up. Was moved from the main list to rookie list via a delisting only one year after his selection in the ND (i.e. just before the 2021 draft). We could upgrade Derksen to main list as a "motivator". But I would say it will have zero difference to any trade price we get for him. Peatling got a future second round pick based on playing games and being good. That's what Derksen needs to do.

More than anything it gives us the picks to play with on draft night. The other alternative is that rather than looking at the likes of paton as a rookie we might actually take him as dfa.

They are very positive about Madden

That's good to hear!

Yes. We can presumably take him (or someone else) as DFA straight onto the rookie list now. Wouldn't impact list spots now.
