For instance can Joe trade a pick right now for someone?
We can not trade our own pick (the next draft) until after the draft is held... it has to do with a CBA rule restricting trading consecutive 1st rounders (we traded last years pick for Arroyo)... so to answer your question we can't trade all of our picks before the deadline).
We can trade the Orlando pick though.

That's wrong. You can't trade consecutive future picks. Since last year already happened it is irrelevant.

Hobbs is correct (I was wrong).
From Coons FAQ:
This rule applies only to future first round picks. For example, if this is the 2005-06 season, then teams can trade their 2006 first round pick without regard to whether they had a 2005 pick, since their 2005 pick is no longer a future pick. But they can't trade away both their 2006 and 2007 picks, since both are future picks. Teams sometimes work around this rule by trading first round picks in alternate years.
In addition, teams are required to have only a first round pick, and not necessarily their first round pick. So teams may trade away their own future picks in consecutive years if they have another team's first round pick in one of those years.
