From one aspect it's frustrating, but the instant-gratification trades simply aren't realistic...
A key part of trading/FA signing/etc is the ability to project into the future, or at least classify players as developing, prime, declining. For trading future draft picks this is a bit difficult as well, but a quick heuristic can be to use the last draft position as a starting point, then adjust for lost player production...

Not saying it should be easy, but if you are playing the game at all right now, the trading system is impossible to work with. Adding picks and players turns deals from ok to not. You can add a bunch of 1st round picks and decent prospects and not even be able to land second line type players.
Trades that are considered even, always are turned down and then adding things to those trades rarely gets it done.
