I agree with the general premise that Steven carries risks and questions remain whether he can return premium scores as a forward, but
I'm reticent in arriving at that position to place too much stock in the proclivity of St Kilda to get arse-****ed at the trade table, particularly in respect of a player who seeks a trade to another club to try to address mental health issues.

Let’s say you factor in the injury and trade risk for Kelly (say via a PIT average less the probability weighted cost of a trade?) would you say he is cheap?
If so, I think he’s viable for you. Otherwise he seems like an unnecessary risk as a starting pick. You can obviously always upgrade into him.

My latest team had this interesting x v y:
Gawn and Rowell (ie. Walsh of 2020, maybe ??)
vs
NN and Walsh (Walsh of 2019
)
In 2018, NN averaged 102 up to the bye and missed one match. At this point in his career he was already having his TOG managed, so it sat ~60%. So probably a realistic estimate is 100. If I think Walsh goes at 100 and Rowell at 70, with Gawn at 125 then perhaps you're ahead on points with option B.
Trade into Gawn after the bye and you avoid a R13 mess?

Laird. Super consistent, you know you'll get a keeper score. Selecting Houston has some level of risk - up to you if you want to take it.
Heeney. I think the Hawks will use Wingard up forward at times, Heeney has shown better form as a forward. If Wingard was guaranteed significant midfield time I'd consider him more.
I know I did pick the more expensive options in both, but generally you get what you pay for.
