NEW YORK -- One thing about an NFL draft with this many trades: There were that many players that teams just simply had to have.

This year, more than ever, teams were willing to make aggressive moves to jump the line and snag the player they really wanted. A record 33 trades were made Saturday and Sunday as NFL teams tried to assemble winning rosters for the 2008 season and beyond.

"It's not something you go in saying, 'We have to do something' for the sake of doing it,'" St. Louis player personnel director Billy Devaney said. "As the draft unfolds, that's going to dictate what your approach is going to be."

The first player to inspire a move up was defensive tackle Sedrick Ellis, whom New Orleans moved up from No. 10 to take seventh overall. One day, almost 14 hours and 32 deals later, the Saints made the draft's last deal, too, moving up to take Michigan wide receiver Adrian Arrington with the 237th pick.

In between, Radio City Music Hall was a veritable bazaar, as draft picks from this year, next year and even a couple of players already on rosters were swapped for picks. Most notably, the Tennessee Titans sent troubled defensive back Adam "Pacman" Jones to Dallas for a fourth-rounder they turned into Cal receiver Lavelle Hawkins, as well as a 2009 sixth-rounder.

"First of all, let me just say thanks to Pacman Jones because if it wasn't for him, I probably wouldn't be a Tennessee Titan so thank you, Pacman Jones," Hawkins said.

Baltimore traded picks for a defensive back, too, sending its fourth-round slot to Oakland for Fabian Washington.

In all, teams exchanged 15 percent of the picks they had to trade. If the 32 compensatory picks (a full round's worth) had been tradable, it's almost certain some of those would have changed hands, too.

There was so much wheeling and dealing going on, the New York Jets and Cleveland Browns wound up trading for their own picks, reacquiring their original positions after trading them away.
