Trading Out of Draft Picks (1 Viewer)

I had the #4 pick in my draft tonight and was actually deciding between LJ, Gore and Addai. I couldn't make up my mind so was trying to trade down in the last hour before the draft. I am in a 2 QB league (with scoring slightly favorable for QB's) and was targeting Brees with my 2nd round pick and wanted to trade up a bit in the 2nd to do so. I have Maroney as a keeper (7th round or later pick from previous year). I could afford to go QB in the second round in that type of league.

As it turned out Tomlinson, Manning and LJ went 1-3. I struck a gold mine IMO with S Jackson at the #4 slot. Not only did I get Jackson but Palmer ended up at my pick at #17. It worked out real well for me to stay put. I could have had a Gore, Brees, Maroney draft but instead got Jackson, Palmer Maroney. Not bad.

 
I think the way to handle it is to have the deal worked out in priciple before the draft, and if you don't have something drop in your lap, then you deal.
