I suppose they could but what team in their right mind trades a top 5 or 10 pick? I guess those are the types of picks users are trying to trade for? A team drafting that high is usually a small market team and what would they get of value they could afford? Better off with a highly touted prospect, with lots of upside (hopefully), and years of control at rates they can afford.
If the draft is thin and top 5 isn't getting you normal top 5 expectations then who would want to trade for it anyway?
