You seemed to ignore the exact reason that Ziltoid is shaking his head at this and I agree with him.
There are many times that a third round pick can tip a trade to your favor, especially on the draft floor.
When a Gm starts tossing picks away on lottery tickets it is a signal to me that they have either been told, or are assuming, they are on the hot seat.
You are 100% right that a 3rd round pick is not likely to help the team in the next few years. If PC is thinking he wont be around that long those picks have zero value for him and it leads to trades like this.
I know nothing of Marody but for a team that should be in a win now mode that pick asset should be used to improve the team, not just throw another fishing line in a shallow pond.

Oilers still have a draft pick in the third round if there is a deal they are desperate to get in on. They have all their picks minus the fourth (Montoya). They also have all their picks (plus and extra 3rd round pick next year) for both 2019 and 2020.
I see this more as using a draft pick in March instead of June and getting a player a couple years older who benefits the team now as opposed to making the pick in June and then waiting for a few years for any potential benefit.

A couple years ago (heck, even 365 days ago) I would have thought the same and been 100% okay with the move; probably even say it was a good move as we are skipping a few development years and cutting out a lot of the uncertainty that comes with a non-first rounder. But PC has backed this team into a corner, and if we are to get out of it, we need to trade and free-agent our way out of it. The clock is ticking on our competitive window, and we just took a bullet out of the chamber as the wolves (other GMs looking at our cap situation down the road) are starting to circle. It seems like PC is strategizing about tomorrow's dinner menu when the ship's hit an iceberg and we are taking on water fast.
