For mine, we moved a lot of experience on and made a lot of the right moves.
We definitely did not extract maximum value for these assets as a whole, with some very good deals (Sauce -> Frampton) and some Poor (Greenwood).
Imo, the success of the trade period hinges on the effectiveness of loading up on late future picks. If we genuinely have two mid first round or better F/S and/or NGA players, and we secure them for peanuts due to the moves we made this period, that's massive win.
If we end up having to take a host of average picks to the draft however and pay maximum value for our discounted players.... That'd suck.
