BIO:
The key defender is an exceptional intercept marker who is strong overhead and good at reading the ball in flight.
Butts was the youngest attendee at last year's Draft Combine but was ultimately overlooked by clubs. He went back to the Murray Bushrangers in the TAC Cup, averaging 17.5 disposals and six marks across 15 games.
The 18-year-old also played three games for Shepparton in the Goulburn Valley League, the last of which was a premiership victory.
Butts' father Gerard also won a premiership with the Bears in 1993 after a three-game VFL career with Carlton in 1988-89.
