Nah, not all drops are immediately tradable. Most new items you get as drops in CS:GO have a trade cooldown. It means you gotta wait a bit, usually about a week, before you can trade 'em with others or sell them on the Steam Market. It's Valve's way to keep the market stable and prevent fraud. So, if you snag a sweet skin or something, be ready to sit tight for a bit before you can deal it.

Actually, some drops CAN be instantly tradable! It really depends on where the drop comes from. Items from major tournament drops, like those sweet Souvenir packages, are usually tradable right away. But yeah, your regular game drop? You're gonna have to wait a week.

Quick take: No, gotta wait. Valve says 'patience is a virtue' or something like that.
