I like the idea of teams start to collect points once they are officially eliminated from the playoffs ("Draft Points"). The team with the most Draft Points picks first, down to the team with the least.
In theory, once a team is eliminated they are still playing for something.
The earliest team eliminated has the longest time to accumulate Draft Points.
In actuality, it will likely be a middling team that wins. I.e. Someone decent, that's eliminated in mid to late March, as opposed to someone terrible that's eliminated in early March.
Not my idea, but I think it would be neat.
