All these systems are complex for the sake of complexity. Just leave the old percentages in place (48%, 25% .. etc etc) and you can only draft twice in the top 3 in a 5 year period. Subsequent finishes that would have you in the top 3 gets you pushed to the 4th or 6th pick, depending on whether they want it top 5 or top 3 picks.

Changing the percentages is the wrong solution, the key is to get teams who sit there year after year out of those prime picks.

The "Playoff" for the first pick is absolutely contrary to the purpose of the draft. Detroit spends 20 years in the playoffs, slips one year but is just out, wins a generational talent ... yay?
