You can't really say that with any conviction. Look at my post above and see some of the wacky trades for top 10 picks that have gone down in history.
Brodie, Backlund, Janko, Bennett are all valuable pieces. Perhaps their value is underrated by some fans. They alone might not get you a top 5-10 pick but in a package they certainly could.
This is a league where Griffin Reinhart was trade for a 1st (Barzal) and a 2nd. This is a league where David Rundblund was traded for a 1st (Tarasenko). All of Brodie, Backlund, Janko and Bennett are more valuable than Reinhart/Rundblad IMO. Reinhart/Rundblad weren't even proven NHLers and both have busted.
