While much has been made of which players will be heading where this off-season, the biggest deal of them all could be West Coast parting with Pick 1.
The Eagles are said to be prepared and pleased to open November's draft count but could be willing to offer their spot at the front of the queue to another club if an exceptionally satisfying deal is sent their way.
Four clubs hold multiple first-round picks at this year's draft, while free agency compensation and an assistance package from the AFL are also expected to extend the number of selections made during the opening night of the National Draft next month.
All 17 rivals would love to gain access to Pick 1, but only several sides are likely to have enough draft capital to potentially broker a deal with the Eagles this off-season.
And with Tongala junior Harley Reid viewed as the standout selection in this year's class, offers are likely to be floated West Coast's way.
In this exercise, we look at five clubs that could conjure offers for Pick 1 that might satisfy the Eagles.
3. Hawthorn
Offer: Pick 3, 2024 first-round selection and a player
There'd be some intrigue from the Eagles if this was put forward to them by the Hawks, with West Coast keeping a top-three selection and could gain another very early selection for next year while also adding to their playing list.
The latter asset will be a deciding factor in how this deal would play out, however, with Hawthorn small forward Tyler Brockman eyeing a move west he could be the final piece of this puzzle.
That would see West Coast add a promising emerging goal threat in Brockman and potentially hold two top-three picks for the price of Pick 1.
There's every chance the Hawks aren't willing to move on both of their early selections, but you'd think under the eyes of Sam Mitchell, the brown and gold will be pressing for a finish much higher than where they landed this year.
In the case the Eagles aren't settled on the offer, then Western Australian Denver Grainger-Barras could be raised in negotiations.
