Two draft developments, both ending with a whimper rather than a bang:
1. The TE I coveted (and didn't even interview, as he seemed likely to go in the first ten picks) lasted into the 20s. I tried in vain to trade up to get him, and watched him go two slots ahead of us... TO OUR HATED RIVALS IN CLEVELAND. ugh. That would have been such a great fit for us.
2. I am predictably uninspired by the time my pick does come up, and eventually deal down. i don't often make this sort of trade, but I take two 2nds (and a 5th) to sell of my late 1st. Given the tier of guys I was considering as my top choices at pick 1.27, I think I very possibly still get one of them in mid-round-two, and so this ends up being a good deal for us. Alas, what that means is my sights are not set very high to being with. (The positions I am targeting are just thin in the groups where I want to focus)
