The 2026 off-season is shaping up to be one of the busiest in recent years, with a host of names poised to switch guernseys in the next fortnight.
With club-linked players and Tasmania's imminent introduction set to influence how clubs value draft picks, determining the worth of each player could prove more complicated than usual.
The list below will strip out the impact of bidding and focus solely on what each player is worth in terms of a draft pick(s).
We assess the trade value of all 25 players currently expected to move clubs IF there were no limitations on deals.
What is each player actually worth on the trade table?
Hudson O'Keeffe
An SSP acquisition ahead of the 2023 season, Hudson O'Keeffe is eyeing a move to the Western Bulldogs in pursuit of greater opportunity at the top level.
Still only 21, "Skull" has toiled away admirably in the reserves, behind players like Marc Pittonet, Liam Reidy and the aforementioned Flynn Riley.
O'Keeffe has forward craft about his game, too, kicking 22 goals from 17 games in the VFL this season, with a bag of five against Brisbane the clear highlight of his showreel.
Playing in O'Keeffe's favour is the leg-rope given ruckmen - most acknowledge their development takes longer than that of a teammate in a different position.
Still, O'Keeffe would want to get busy, and quickly. A similar value to teammate Flynn Riley is in order.
O'Keeffe trade value: Pick 66
