✕ AVOID

O'Keeffe's 45 in Round 5 is his season best and clears his 29 BE, but a 29.7 average over three games tells the real story — scraping above breakeven rather than generating cash, with cash gen still negative at -$1,620. Carlton's congested forward line offers no ceiling upgrade. There are better rookie cash cows available; avoid.
