Looks arrogant in his highlights reel
Jayden "The Green Machine" Laverde!Nickname- Green
I was thinking more like a faster Del Santo
Far more athletic than Goddard.http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-11-10/17-days-to-the-draft-meet-jayden-laverde
■■■■■■ good get they reckon he could be the new goddard
Is definately the modern day footballer and prototype midfielder.
More in the Pendlebury or Fyfe mould rather than Goddard in my opinion.
Is silk by foot but is freakishly athletic too.
Bit taller than Dal.
Hopefully a bit longer than Dal
Looks arrogant in his highlights reel
Looks like someone with great confidence in their ability.
Awesome draft again dodoro!
Finally, I can get over missing out on Tom Fields.

List chief Adrian Dodoro said the club rated Langford the 12th best player in the draft and Laverde eighth, but took them in the opposite order to combat Carlton‘s plans at No. 19.

Essendon say trading Paddy Ryder will rebuild club after snaring Kyle Langford, Jayden Laverde
ESSENDON is confident the Paddy Ryder trade can help the club achieve short and long-term success after nabbing two tall excitement machines last night.The Bombers secured 190cm mobile forward Kyle Langford (No.17) and 189cm X-factor midfielder Jayden Laverde (No. 20) to bolster the club‘s outside running and marking options.It meant the Ryder trade to Port Adelaide effectively netted the Bombers former Western Bulldog Adam Cooney and Langford.List chief Adrian Dodoro said the club rated Langford the 12th best player in the draft and Laverde eighth, but took them in the opposite order to combat Carlton‘s plans at No. 19.“We wanted to get running height into our midfield and we saw two guys who have got the potential to be, without giving them labels, we think Langford has a bit of Nat Fyfe in him,†Dodoro said.“He can mark overhead, we can isolate him forward, play him onball. He is a very exciting player and so is Jayden.â€Essendon coach James Hird said he was pleased with the outcome of the Ryder deal.“When Paddy left we had to give the current list an opportunity to be successful and we looked at players who would compliment our list and add experience,†he said.“But having two picks inside 20 had to be about the future.â€Laverde‘s height, marking strength and versatility prompted one recruiter this week to dub him “a better version of Marcus Bontempelliâ€.“I can certainly see the comparisons in terms of growth. He can be anything if he put his mind to it,†Dodoro said.

For those who didn't follow the draft that closely then this is all you have to know.
Just how highly rated these kids are and where we got them is such a terrific result for our club.
Freak talents these kids and players who have the attributes and attitude to become stars.
I still can't believe how well we did.
Im on the Laverde bandwagon. Just looks absolute class.
Loving the Laverde regret on the Carlton thread on Bigfooty…
