This trade values Nick Blakey at 4,297 points, more than Pick 1 is worth.
The future picks in it count at their projected points.
Implied by the trade, not an official value: the AFL puts points on picks, never on players.
Projected points value a future pick as its club's pick of the same round in the 2026 order, as if the club finished the same way again. They are not the pick's points: those wait on how the club finishes, and the 2027 draft adds Tasmania and a new points table.
Points guide a trade; they do not decide it.
