GOLD Coast tall Chris Burgess has got his trade wish, landing at Adelaide in a deal that has also netted the Crows pick 14 in this year's draft.

One of a flurry of trades on Wednesday afternoon, the Crows have picked up Burgess and pick 14 from the Suns in exchange for Adelaide's picks 23 and 26.

The pick 14 had earlier been moved from Melbourne to the Suns in a separate deal.

The deal allows the Suns to add more draft points so they can match bids on their star Academy quartet at this year's national draft.

Key forward Jed Walter, ruckman Ethan Read and midfielder Jake Rogers are all rated top-15 prospects, while Will Graham was a standout at the recent Draft Combine.
