Converted Portrait to Landscape Clip Not Dragging to Timeline

Apologies for asking what I'm sure is a fairly basic question in Pr v14.0. I accidentally created a few Portrait format clips for a project that is largely Landscape format. I have converted the Portrait clips to Landscape by creating a new sequence and setting custom width and height parameters. The converted clips work well.
My problem is that, although I can see the sequence with the converted format in the Project Bin, it won't drag to the timeline. I'm sure that there's something very basic that I'm missing, but I'm not sure what.
All suggestions are welcome.

Instead of trying to convert the clip via a Nested sequence, please drag the clip to the timeline and use the Effects Panel to adjust its parameters: e.g. use Scale and Position to place it correctly. There is no need to for Nesting.

You're saying that you can see your sequence with converted format in the Project panel but you can't drag it to the Timeline. Why do you want to drag it into the Timeline? Do you want to nest it inside another sequence?

If you double-click on it, does it open?
