From a coding standpoint, this would be a little trickier than it might seem. The current code likely runs the same game day as the trade. Run code, if yes, execute trade and publish.
For a rumor article to be possible, the code to decide if a trade was or was not successful would have to be done 1-2 weeks in advance of the actual decision - like in real life... then a new routine would have to peruse the "pending" trades and pick a couple to publish.
Not impossible, but a bit more work than one might expect. I do think is would be a nice addition though.
PS: Currently, there are stories that suggest teams are talking about a trade - I don't know if these are based on actual "pending" trades or simply random creations for the newspaper.
