You can not judge by NAB stats last year as he was a rawboned 18 year old who only played part games.

I have seen him play a couple of times now and his body has developed a lot and ready made now for AFL.  However at that price will want to see him in a couple of games preseason to see how he goes.

People are expecting wayy to much of this kid in his first year. He will average around 70, there are better options for a lot cheaper

He will most likely be in my side for a few reasons:
1. I think he will average 80-85 in the first half of the season.
2. Will likely have good job security
3. He will be a popular pick.
4. If he is a dud, you can cut your losses and easily trade him out after a few rounds and pocket the $50-100K.
5. If you start without him and he's on fire from the start, good luck trying find the $100K once the seasons started to bring him in before it's too late, would likely cost you 2 trades. 
6. I believe he will be a popular pick so if he is a dud a lot of people are in the same boat, if you don't pick him and he's a dud congrats in being that small group. But if he isn't a dud, you will start your season already behind.

Maybe maybe not. Surely having Martin scoring 80 and a prem 100K less than Pendles scoring 105 - is the same as having a 100K rookie scoring 65 and Pendles scoring 120 with that extra cash?

What I'm saying is it depends where u spend that 100 K.
