SEASON 5: 2029 DRAFT:

Jack Ledger had to be the most active GM on draft day, wheeling and dealing all over the draft board. He started the day with the 1.4 and an extra second, but it seemed every time the Dragons were on the clock, Commissioner Gordon came forward to announce a trade.

Ledger first traded out of the 1.4 to drop down and pick up an extra 2nd, giving the Dragons three 2nd-round picks. Only a few selections later, Ledger pulled a blockbuster, sending S Aaron Newhart and 2nd rounders all over the place to reel in another top-15 1st round pick. Later, Ledger traded away his 3rd rounder for a pair of fourth rounders.

By the weekend's end, the Dragons were left with 8 draft picks, including the 1.9, 1.12, and 2.8.
