What I tend to do when making trades in historical leagues is put the difficulty at very hard, and see if the trade is accepted at all 5 AI preferences (from heavily favor veterans to heavily favor prospects), to save time I try it out at the two extremes. In most cases, heavily favor prospects gives you the least amount of trade possibilities, but in rare cases, the AI rejects some of those accepted trades with the heavily favor veterans setting.
I suggest adding a difficulty level which is the same as very hard, but the trade needs to be accepted at all 5 AI preferences. I dont think its additional AI programming as it doesnt compute anything that isnt done already, but just makes it a tiny bit harder as the trade needs to be accepted for all difficulties and settings.

I see a lot of people set it to favor prospects, but that just seems like it makes it easier to trade prospect for veterans
I've started altering it based on what I'm trading/trading for
I'd I'm trading for prospects, I set to favor prospects and vice versa
