Kelly Kelly to Smackdown Big Show to Smackdown John Morrison to Raw R-Truth to Raw Edge to Raw Kofi Kingston to Smackdown Christian to Smackdown Chris Jericho to Raw The Great Khali to Raw Chavo Guerrero to Smackdown Cody Rhodes to Smackdown Tyson Kidd, David Hart Smith, and Natalya to Raw Chris Masters to Smackdown Ezekiel Jackson to Raw Goldust to Raw Hornswoggle to Smackdown Rosa Mendes to Smackdown MVP to Smackdown
My thoughts:
Smackdown lost a lot of star power in this draft, but I think it's a good opportunity to build up more guys. Swagger, Christian, Rhodes, and MVP can be built up while keeping guys like Undertaker, Mysterio, and Punk in the picture. I like most of the moves, but the Hart Dynasty moving to Raw worries me. I love them, but once they lose the titles they'll have nowhere to go. I would have also left Ezekiel Jackson on Smackdown to develop. He's a big guy with a lot of potential, but moving to Raw could snuff that out. A few more changes I would have made would have been to move one or both of the Colons to Smackdown, along with Zack Ryder to Smackdown to keep him with Rosa Mendes, and move Evan Bourne over there too, and bring back Matt Hardy and one of the former Cryme Tyme members to Raw.
The draft gives guys a fresh start and a chance to turn their careers around, and this should do that. I would have done a few things differently, but overall, it worked.

Best Pick - Goldust to RAW
Worst Pick - Khali to RAW

I thought Goldust could do really well on Smackdown. Back on Raw he's not going to get any airtime.
Khali to Raw is probably just for the Guest Host segments. Since Hornswoggle moved to Smackdown, they'll replace him with Khali.

Santino still gets air time on Raw. If he does, Goldust will too.

Santino > Everyone else. That's why he gets airtime.

I think Goldust is a good move, you have a competent ring general who can help these kids get better in the ring.

At least I didn't say in front of a group of people that Santina had nice legs.

I think the biggest moves are MVP and Kofi to Smackdown. Dude will finally get a chance to shine.

MVP needs time to reconnect. He has not been good at all as a face and the move to Raw killed any credibility he had.
Kofi should have reached the next level with that Orton Feud but didn't. He also needs to reestablish himself.
Cody Rhodes is the best acquisition, he should have gotten the push when 20,000 fans chanted his name after his fathers RKO.

SPOILER ALERT! DON'T READ IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED!
Apparently MVP gets a big ass reaction this week on SD and whatnot. Plus next week Kofi vs. Christian for the IC title. (Drew got stripped)

I think the draft is good for everyone on Smackdown. There's only a few top world title guys on SD now, and the few there are were hardly in the ME spots. So there's tons of room for the young guys to move up now. On the reverse side, everyone stuck in the mid-card on Raw, will be stuck in the mid-card on Raw with all the top ME guys over there.

mvp was over HUGE! him vs punk is genius. going to be good for both of them
show vs swagger is great also but omfg they let him talk too long, I fast forward 2/3rds and it was still long.

I dislike how a week after Shelton is fired, MVP steals his finisher. Whether it was his idea or managements, I just don't like it.
