A big winner during the trade period, the Demons positioned themselves nicely for the draft by grabbing a second top-10 pick.
They already held pick five, but also managed to nab pick nine from Essendon.
Melbourne gave the Bombers some later selections – as well as their future first-round pick – as part of the deal, but are now well-placed to bring in two top-end talents.
List boss Tim Lamb has declared that “supporters should be really excited”.
With two top picks, the Demons could snag two different types of players.
At pick 5, a gun midfielder like Harvey Langford, Jagga Smith or Josh Smillie would be handy.
At pick 9, Melbourne would surely have to look at Sandringham Dragons key forward Harry Armstong if he was still available.
Measuring 195cm, Armstrong’s best traits are his overhead marking and his accurate goalkicking, while he also has the tank to push up the ground and get back.
The Demons are also considering picking up Gippsland Power small forward Ricky Mentha as a Category B rookie, through their Next Generation Academy.
