Overall


Tutt is a good small defender prospect. At worst he should be a good depth player, at best he could be a valuable small defender at AFL that can clear zones with his long kicking and set up forwards thrusts. Worth a 3rd round pick IMO, but seems to be considered more of a rookie prospect.
