Queensland is not expected to figure anywhere nearly as prominently in the draft as last year when a stunning 11 young players were picked, including eight in the top 32.
"That was a remarkable year," AFL Queensland's talent manager Mark Browning said.
"Our aim now is to get 12 kids picked up, either in the draft or the rookie list.
"We're hopeful of four players from our system getting the nod in the draft this year."
