We cannot trade any first round picks until May 14th, 2019 unless we get one from another team and trade that same pick out again.

Until our pick confers, we cannot trade it or even a future pick, because that pick is still hanging over our head. So....

A) If we do keep our pick because we get a top-5 pick in the lottery, we can trade the 2019 pick (which we retain) and ONLY the 2019 pick, but still cannot trade a future pick until Atlanta gets theirs. This can't happen until May 14th, 2019-- after the season ends and after draft order is established to determine who keeps the pick.

B) If we don't draft in the top 5, then the pick goes to ATL. As soon as the lottery is over, we can trade future picks (2020 and beyond). We still can't trade consecutive years, but if we give ATL our 2019, we could hypothetically trade the 2020, 2022, and 2024, but only after the lottery is drawn and the pick confers.

Other than that, we can only trade other team's picks and our own second rounders.
