Draggable in Scroll View Returning to proper place on Drop

Hey all, What I am attempting to do is I have a scroll rect of draggable elements set up of "sticker critters". When I drag them out I set to the root transform so they arn't masked anymore to drag into a box where they can be dropped. I'm not worried about removing them from the roster. However because I'm using a grid layout component whenever I drop the draggable it goes to the bottom of the hierarchy in the inspector. If i want it to go back to the spot it can from what would be my best action moving forward? I was thinking adding a place holder when i pick up the draggle but how do i get the child index of the draggable? Thanks in advanced, will provide any other info.
