It would likely have to be something like, if the 2024 first round pick is deferred to 2025, the 2025 first round pick is deferred to 2026. No protection at that point on the 2025 pick but there would still be protection on the 2026 pick. If 2026 pick is a lottery pick, it becomes a 2027 first round pick.
