IMO, they need to sell sooner than the deadline. This team could still go on a winning streak and ruin their draft position.
late 1sts, 2nds and 3rds are very unlikely to be franchise altering picks.
1st overall is very likely to be franchise altering. Even 2nd or 3rd OV is likely to be franchise altering. Only San Jose looks awful, the door is open for 2nd last spot.
