Out of curiosity, what happens with some of these deals that go out several years? How will you know how many rounds you will have cut back to?
When you trade future picks, you are basically committing to making sure they are legitimate picks when that future draft finally rolls around. In practice, using the current deal as an example, if your roster would become filled prior to the 7th rd pick -- thus making that pick invalid -- then you would typically replace it with your last valid pick as of that moment.
