Improving the all time draft ideas/draft schedule (not a sign up)

Draft season is soon approaching. I’ve decided to wait till after the draft. I will do an all time jazz draft. Looking to keep the draft small with 6-8 participants.

After that I will do the all time draft. Looking to do it later. Would love to have @Saint Cy of JFC join that.

After that I’m hoping someone like @Elizah Huge or someone else will do a current draft. If not I’ll gladly run it.

I want the all time draft to be great this year so I’m opening up a discussion as to how we can improve the competition. I know over the past year people have had ideas that frankly I’d like to try but need a refresher as that was a long time ago.

Thoughts?
 
For the All-Time draft, place the players drafted in the 2020s in a separate era from 2010s. So each person drafting would now be required to have the first 6 picks be from 6 separate eras (1. 70s and earlier, 2. 80s, 3. 90s, 4. 00s, 5. 10s, 6. 20s. (The old system was 5 eras with 10s and 20s grouped together).

I kinda like that since 00-09 is pretty weak
 
Idea: Big 3 draft

How it would basically work is that you can only draft three players above a certain threshold (say, ever an all-star or higher), the rest of the players drafted are below that threshold. I think that would be a way more interesting angle than usual and the historical deep dives would be deeper.
 
Draft the worst All-Time Jazz team you can.

Put some kind of minutes or games played minimum so we cant just draft scrubs who played like 10 games in one season and never played again. Just draft 5 players each. Each team has to have at least one big and one guard.

Worst team wins.

In the depths of our hearts, we are all giant haters, so it will be fun to remember the worst players in Jazz history and honor them as such.

So you want to draft guys like say jazz, great Jeff Malone? Guys that have never made an All-Star game?

Does no one else love this?

Imagine arguing about the value of Jaron Collins vs Tony Bradley.
