The 2015 draft was a bumper draft, with many of the players who went in these proceedings going on to be stars of the competition.

Whilst there have been some who haven't exactly lit up the competition that were drafted highly, there have also been some massive movers who have come from later picks to achieve big things.

Here is the original first 18 of the draft for context:

  1. Jacob Weitering (Carlton)
  2. Josh Schache (Brisbane)
  3. Callum Mills (Sydney)
  4. Clayton Oliver (Melbourne)
  5. Darcy Parish (Essendon)
  6. Aaron Francis (Essendon)
  7. Jacob Hopper (GWS)
  8. Callum Ah Chee (Gold Coast)
  9. Sam Weideman (Melbourne)
  10. Harry McKay (Carlton)
  11. Wayne Milera (Adelaide)
  12. Charlie Curnow (Carlton)
  13. Matthew Kennedy (GWS)
  14. Eric Hipwood (Brisbane)
  15. Daniel Rioli (Richmond)
  16. Harrison Himmelberg (GWS)
  17. Tom Doedee (Adelaide)
  18. Jade Gresham (St Kilda)

For context, in this draft, several teams bid for Academy players and shuffled up the draft order (i.e. Sydney with Callum Mills). However, to avoid hypotheticals, the draft order will stay the same, so Sydney for example still will slide in at Pick 3 regardless of the player they draft. Teams will also be drafting for need, and not necessarily the best player.

Without further ado, here is the 2015 draft, re-done.

17. Jade Gresham - Adelaide (Original position - Pick 18)

Sometimes maligned by St Kilda fans, it suffices to say that Jade Gresham is a great player to watch when he is on.

Injuries marred his campaign this year, however, 115 goals in 113 games for St Kilda is still a great record to boast of, especially considering he has divided his time between midfield and forward.

In this re-draft, it'll be the Crows that get him across to South Australia, putting him in a forward line that already contained Eddie Betts, Taylor Walker and Charlie Cameron. Should he have stayed fit and featured in their 2017 campaign, could things have turned out different for Don Pyke's side?
