Let's say the salary cap wasn't a thing, and the only games played were just playoff style games. Then I'd have to think about it. Jones and Werenski give you a lot more size and strength on the puck. They're much better at clearing the net, they're better shot blockers, etc... And between the two of them they score about as much as Makar.
But that's about the only scenario where I wouldn't call it larceny. Makar will be more cost effective and he'll be a dramatically better regular season player.
