Nathan Freeman is pretty quick.

"No, you didn't."
"Yes, I did."
"Listen, an argument isn't just the automatic gainsaying of anything the other person says, it's a series of statements designed to support a particular conclusion."
"No, it isn't."
"Oh, I've had enough of this."
"No you haven't"
"Oh shut up."

Jack Steven is an outside mid who has won 3 B&F's. So to say we have no pace in the middle is a little rich.
He is now 27.

This is true.
But he is 22 and currently on 0 AFL games.
One more bad injury and it might be curtains.

What makes an outside mid?

Pace?
Effective disposal?
Line Breaking?
Being played in that position as a junior?

From what I can glean, players who have 3 out of the 4. I am sure that the plans of the recruiting team are not to just load up with backmen - I am doubly sure that they have seen something that others have not. Afterall is said and done Dylan Moore was still available, and he was listed as a mid.

I am very happy with this draft, and I look forward to tallying votes against their names soon (well maybe in 12 months)
