In real life, a player can't be traded without his consent within something like 60 or 90 days of signing a contract.

Draftees can't be traded for 1 year after signing. For a real world example as it relates to draftees, look at Tyler Skaggs in the Dan Haren trade sending him from AZ to LAA. He was the centerpiece of the package going to AZ, but wasn't yet eligible to be traded, so was included as a PTBNL.
