It will probably come down to something like, if BH wants to come to us and say Suns relent and want our 2 first rounders and if those picks could get us say another Langford and say another Disco, what do we want more?

Also another poster mentioned Paddy Cross. Of course he is untested, but say BH is a 20 possession 2 goal a game player and Cross becomes let’s say a 14 possession 1 goal a game player, does that affect the above choice?

Then factor in the improvement of say Culley, Howes, AMW, Langford, Kolt and Windsor and say Trelly and Matthews start showing something, how does that effect the choice.

In other words it is a big investment in a player that has to be carefully considered and of course I didn’t even touch on the issue of a long and large contract that will be needed to get BH and the effect it has on our salary cap and player morale.

Those that think 2 first rounders for Humphrey clearly don't watch the Suns or project players development. Fourth in their B&F last year behind the Brownlow medalling, current captain and All Australian and prior captain. He is super clean and dynamic and unlike some others of his age has high impact per possession. Will only improve as he further builds his tank and maturity.
Happy for us take a proven player with potential to be elite with 5 years development into him over a swing at 2 more kids (though we are pretty good at nailing them). Kay defensive posts if required can be filled via trade or free agency in my view.

Exactly.

People wouldn't stop at any less than two first rounders and a future for Trac and with good reason but this guy has serious potential.

I'd shudder to think what we'd have to give up for Humphrey after holding Petracca to ransom and milking 3 firsts.
