"Which is why I asked what you consider expensive? Would you say 500k? 600k?
If these players at up to 600k are classy & not expensive, it's a pretty small window reliant on what's available?
Which brings us back to the development angle, and that…"

"For sure, as mentioned, 800k & there's no way the Eels will look at him. 600-650k, is possibly a different story. As you mentioned with salary cap, those centres might've been 600k but that was decent coin also.

They'll find a way not to give it to Hayne.
Jarryd is only 3rd behind Slater & G.I. purely because the latter two wouldn't be near as effective either as Wingers, Centres or 5/8's as Jarryd would be.
Slot Jarryd as a Winger, he's effective whereas Slater & G.I. would do good but not as well as Jarryd plays in that position as shown in Rep Footy games for the Kangaroos or NSW Origin.
Put Jarryd as a Centre, as shown in last years World Cup, he's a far better passer and sets up his outside men compared to G.I. and also is a harder runner than Slater.
Same can be said if Jarryd would be 5/8, better passer than G.I. and breaks tackles better than Slater.
G.I. & Slater have no where near the utility value that Jarryd has, I guess when it comes to rep footy, that is Hayne's blessing & curse to be that great and he is the best of both those players.
