Description

Eliotte Friedman on his most recent 31 thoughts article stated that the Devils would consider trading the 4th pick for a good, young defensemen. Down below are just possibilities if the Devils do decide to go that route. There are certain instances where the Devils would probably have to add more than the 4th pick for some of these defenseman or vice versa where NJ gets a package for the 4th pick if they acquire a dman who isn't on the same level as some of the other options. Personally I'd prefer if the devils went after Dougie Hamilton in free agency and then took either Brandt Clarke or Luke Hughes in the draft, but I guess we'll see. Don't want a repeat of what the devils did in 2013.

You're not getting any of those guys unless you're Holtz/Mercer/Smith++. Boqvist is the only one that is reasonable

Like I said, NJ would have to put together a package for these defenseman including the 4th pick. Not just the 4th pick straight up for the young defenseman.

Why not Jones or Dumba? They are two high end youngish d men that are actually on the block. The 4th is a bit high for Dumba imo but may be close for Jones
