Grade my 2017 trades?

Commissioner dug up our leagues full trading history since 2013 and sent it out as spreadsheets. We had some laughs, some bleep giving (commissioner traded away both David Johnson and Le'veon Bell their rookie seasons lol) and plenty of face palms and back pats as well
Here's mine from 2017 so that I can better learn, so don't be afraid to let me have it. Especially on the Thielen trade, league has been giving me bleep especially since I'm a Vikings fan and should have known better. If a pick placement is in parentheses, that means that's where it ended up after the season finished. Typically at the time of the deal I knew at least early, middle, or late
1) Aug 3rd- Traded away Damien Williams and a 3rd for Frank Gore
2) Aug 28 -Traded away Jay Cutler for a 4th
3) Oct 3rd- Traded away Trubisky, 2nd round (2.5) and 5th round for 1st round (1.10)
4) Oct 17th- This was the big trade
Traded away Keenan Allen, Joe Mixon, 1st round (1.10), Gio Bernard, 4th round
received OBJ, TJ Yeldon, Julius Thomas, 2nd round (2.9) 3rd round (3.2)
5) Oct 26th- Traded away Adam Thielen, 3rd round (3.2) for 1st round (1.8) and Latavius Murray
Of course in the above two trades, if you look at the dates, they began doing significantly better once off my team. Keenan Allen blew up second half of the year and the gap between him and OBJ I'm no longer sure is what I paid, and Thielen I thought was a sell high time, but then he starter scoring touchdowns and his value and production went up even more. Oops
6) Nov 7th- Traded away Frank Gore and received 4th round
7) Nov 7th- Traded away Carolina defense, Leonte Caroo, received Patriots D, 2nd round (2.6)
8) Dec 1- traded away 1st round (1.8) for Mark Ingram
9) Dec 9th- traded away Devontae Booker, round 2 (2.9) round 4, 2019 2nd round for Lamar Miller, round 3 (3.7)
The Ingram and Miller trades were because I made playoffs despite Cook being hurt, trading away Mixon and Keenan Allen for an injured OBJ, and selling Thielen so I figured why not try and salvage my runningbacks and see if I can luck out on a run. Didn't work, lost first round. Also lost consolation game so got the 1.6 pick instead of the 1.5
10) Jan 4th- Traded away Jordan Matthews, received 2.5 and Brandon Coleman
