To me, Draco doesn't seem to be in charge in Malfoy/Crabbe/Goyle trio 
anymore. He and his family are in disgrace with LV, and even Crabbe and 
Goyle understand that the Malfoys "are finished". Crabbe & Goyle don't 
look up to Draco anymore, the roles are reversed.

Maybe it was their idea to catch Harry, and Draco didn't dare to argue 
and had to follow them. He didn't cast a single spell in RoR (he lost 
his mother's wand soon, but anyway), and tried to stop Crabbe & Goyle 
from killing Harry (whatever his real reasons were). 

Believe me, I'm not trying to give Draco more credit than he deserves
(never liked him :-)), but I think this is one of a few possible 
explanations for his appearance in RoR.
