if Port weren't offering much for him what makes you think he would have been picked up by other clubs in the PSD?

Very different kettle of fish, PSD vs a trade

Port may not have been willing to use a national draft pick of any value to get JR, but PSD picks are generally not held in as high regard due to the low number of players that get that far.

So an Essendon* with pick 2 in the PSD staring at a choice between, say, Dylan McLaren or Jordan Russell wouldn't hesitate...
