NFL Draft - Trading down

So I'm going through an Online CCM with the Colts, in year 2017 now, simmed all the way through. Not once during any of the previous drafts has the option 'Trade Down' appeared during the draft and I've received no offers on players I've put on the trading block. I loved being a team builder in prior Maddens, accumulating loads of picks but I can't for the life of me get any additional picks. Has anybody else experienced this? Is there a way around this?

It will only appear when its your time to pick, it will be in the options on the bottom left of the screen alone with select player, etc.

Yeah when it's my turn, I let it continue for a bit (before picking a player) but it never appears, hmmmm

Re: NFL Draft - Trading down

If I have 1, or 2 I usually don't get any offers.
Mid picks get more attention, same in the 2nd round.
You have to keep salary cap in mind too, some teams can't afford to pay a prospect in the top 10.
This reason why I think some of the people complaining about trade logic being broken always forget to think about. CAP SPACE!
I can get pick 1-5 every year if I wanted to, but can I afford to pay them, or risk losing them to FA.
Sure I can let the comp work things out for me, but that's no fun!
