It could work out to trade down but at the end of the day there are only so many spots for young players to be put in a role to succeed. Not all our prospects will need 1st line roles and PP roles, some will turn into our future Backlund/Coleman's but only 4 forwards play on the 1st PP and 3 on the 1st line. If you rebuild properly, you should be able to get a few 1st/2nd line caliber players. Franchise players do not grow on trees, you have a chance for one you take him and hope you draft well around him.
