The standard deviation of the draft quality over the past 8 years suggests that draft picks are pretty similar from year to year.
Some years pick 40 is worth more than pick 1
...that's was a thinly veiled swipe at Collingwood btw

The standard deviation of the draft quality over the past 8 years suggests that draft picks are pretty similar from year to year.
I'm not an expert on Richmond's list.
If WC were talking to Richmond about Seaby, pick 26 would be the focal point of discussions.
I don't think that's what I actually said.And there we have it, West Coast's version of Jason Laycock is worth pick 26 iyho

I certainly didn't say, "he's worth x".
Poor effort.
Instead of making a coherent argument, you just distort those made by others.
If West Coast were talking to Richmond about Seaby, discussion would revolve around Richmond's pick 26. Do you disagree with this?
I didn't say it would be a straight swap.
It depends how desperate Seaby is to leave.Ok, you're West Coast Coast's List Manager, would what be the minimum you'd accept as compensation for Seaby?
Relevance?And a second question, do you believe Seaby is better than Laycock?
Relevance?
I don't think Seaby is a star, but he's probably ahead of Laycock. It's not a point I feel passionately about.
Given that I'd be packaging Seaby with 36 (did you miss that?), a pick around 30 in return is entirely reasonable.You say a pick around 30 would be your asking price for Seaby and I personally think neither he or Laycock are worth anything better than a 4th or even 5th round pick.
What is the value of pick x?Now there's Lovett...you're the List Manager of a side lacking pace and goal kickers, Lovett says "I wanna play at you're club bro"...you have pick x that you're willing to offer the Bombers. What is the value of x?
Given that I'd be packaging Seaby with 36 (did you miss that?), a pick around 30 in return is entirely reasonable.
I'd be pushing for more.
What is the value of pick x?
Do you understand why that is a stupid question?
Pick 30 would be the minimum I would accept for Seaby and pick 36.I did miss that part. Richmond have 26, so an upgrade from 36 to 26 is what you're saying. Where did pick 30 come from?
The phrase "pick x" refers to a pick of indeterminant value.And no I don't see why the question is stupid. It's a hypothetical situation with no club specified, hence I don't know what picks you have. Basically x is the maximum you'd offer for Lovett...
Your question "what is the value of pick x" is self-defeating. There is no answer, because no-one knows what x represents.
That's great.If this were in person, I could talk slower, but typing slower doesn't have the same effect.
That's great.
But you're the one who asked the dumb question.
Being sarcastic won't conceal that.
"What is the value of pick x?"
Dumb question. By definition, its value is unknown. That's why it's call "pick x".
Maybe you need to read slower.

Dude, just answer the damn question. Stop avoiding it, or are you a professional politician?
Which question do you want me to answer?Dude, just answer the damn question. Stop avoiding it, or are you a professional politician?
Well, is it pick 20 or pick 36 or pick 52?Pick x is any draft pick in you're possession that you're willing trade.
It wasn't "out of thin air".You pulled pick 30 out of thin air before when discussing Seaby
Doing what?...are you capable of doing similar in a hypothetical trade for Lovett?
How did he demonstrate that he understood the question?See Gunnar, loinchop understood the question and also picked out that you're being a douche by avoiding giving an answer.
imo Lovett is worth a third rounder. Where did anyone get the idea he was worth a first rounder? Deluded bomber supporters prehahps?

Lovett is worth whatever another club will offer in return.lovett is worth between 15-25
Yeah we overrate our players... but maybe you guys overrate how bad Didak's off field issues are/were. Especially when you compare them to this guy:
