It's not as easy as just following a draft board, particularly when you're adding in draft-day trades.  I think something that doesn't get talked about enough, is all of the non-executed trades.  The GM has to continuously value draft capital (picks) vs the players that are still available.  Whether player X is or isn't worth trading up for and if so how much is he worth? Do you think player Y will be available after trading down, is taking a chance he's not worth a 2nd round pick, or is it worth a 2nd and next years 3rd, etc.
