The 2024 AFL Draft is just days away, with all 18 clubs getting their affairs in order as they prepare to attain talent from this year's stacked class of prospects.
More than half of the competition have priority access to draft prospects they will look to add to their list via the Academy and father-son mechanisms, but further planning is in place to pry talent from the open pool.
The first round of the draft currently consists of 23 selections owned by just 12 clubs, with the six other sides hoping a particular teenager or two slides out of their projected draft range and into their lap.
Whether your team holds an early selection or doesn't start their count until night two of the draft, we've matched up an ideal prospect to all 18 clubs for their first selection of this year's AFL Draft.
For this exercise we have avoided double-ups, keeping all 18 selections to 18 different draft prospects.ย
Adelaide
FULL PROFILE
Position:ย Midfielder
Height:ย 182cm
State:ย South Australia
Club:ย Willunga
The South Australian captain isn't just the best prospect from his state, he's also the perfect puzzle piece for the Crows to add to their midfield mix.
X-Factor, speed, ball-winning nous and leadership qualities headline the package that comes with Draper's services, with the pacey South Adelaide product the chance to be the best onballer from a midfield-led draft class.
The Crows open their intake with Pick 4 and will hope the damaging centrepiece is available to them when they're first on the clock. If not, Adelaide still won't be short on promising midfield options that early into the count.
Others to consider:ย Jagga Smith, Finn O'Sullivan
