You could sign a minor league contract scrub for the team trading the pick. Then make the trade of one team to another. Then release the scrub.
But I thought there was a draft utility out there, one of the other fine OOTP players will tell us.

There is a draft order utility. But to trade the picks you should use the method mentioned.

Another method that works well is to create a guy and name him Team X 1st Round Pick 1910... sign him to the appropriate team, then execute the trade and release/delete the player. The added benefit you get with this is the transaction log has a record of the trade in case something happens to the message board and you lose the notation of which pick was traded.
