The 2024 Draft [no longer spec] Thread

I havent made videos on any of them yet and I tend to have a better idea of a kid once I’ve done that.

I know Day-Wicks decently well having seen a fair bit of him last season. He’s been playing as one of those medium sized hybrid mid/forwards that each talent league team has a couple of these days. He hits the scoreboard and is pretty powerful. He’s had a quiet start to the season, I suspect he’s been injured? Not fully across that though.

Jacques is a small/medium defender, takes a LOT of liberties with his defensive assignment from the amount that I’ve seen of him. Runs off, pushes right up to the wings, very attacking and finds a lot of footy, nice kick. Pretty skinny at this stage. Think Nic Martin, but even more cavalier with his matchup.

Hynes I’ve not focused on yet, I’ve only really noted him in passing. But he’s on my list for this week after his huge game on the weekend so you’ll be able to have a look for yourself soon.

edit: draft range wise all three are super difficult to peg for a variety of reasons. Day-Wicks was definitely a top 20 candidates before the season, but he hasnt played enough yet to get a feel for how he’s developed from last year. The other two are later/deeper prospects, but they’ve both started the season really well so who knows? I generally dont like making a call on draft ranges until after the champs.
