While he would be my preference I don't think Laverde is even enough of a clear cut choice at pick 5 to be to worried about him going at 4.
He wont go top 3 IMHO.
If GWS believe that taking Laverde at 4 is some type of strategic selection that will see them still land Wright at 6 I think they might be sorely mistaken. |
^This. If we miss out on Laverde, I can't see us passing up Wright. He has the potential to develop in to a monster forward and would be a perfect compliment to the athletic forward that Moore projects to be.
Can't see GWS taking the risk on passing him up at 4. With Boyd gone, and their need for an apprentice for Mumford, he is a super important pickup for their list structure. |

Our biggest need is for a smooth mid-utility with foot and marking skills, and this draft has a few of that type, we can't afford another project 200cm player ATM (not with pick 5 anyway), we have a need for a mid-utility now, Wright will take years before maturing. |

Established procedure - best available. If you believe the hype Wright will be gone. |
