Still, just move on from the EU stuff. You're going to need Jedis, which I'm not sure if a storyline like that is going to provide.
That's always been the "Trilogy" problem, hasn't it. Between Episode 3 and 4, the only Jedi were Obi Wan and Yoda - Obi Wan dies in Ep 4, Yoda at the beginning of 6, leaving only Luke to train the next generation (who was optimistic about those prospects), with, presumably his children (ultimately) and Han and Leia's children forming the corps of the next generation of Jedi.
Those stories would be interesting, but could they sustain a trilogy of films? I think that would be a better fit for an actual, multi-season Star Wars series. A film trilogy would need big stories a big crisis or a big villain. They could go way back prior to Episode 1, or they could go way forward to the rise of Vader's grandchildren/great-grandchildren and maybe a new Jedi/Sith divide.

This time I'd honestly rather not have the main protagonist be a Jedi or become one. Just have it to where he may be at the wrong place at the wrong time (or right place depending how you look at it) and does some sort of shenanigan that gets the attention of the Jedis. I wouldn't make the Jedis huge either, maybe just a dozen or two instead of thousands.
