Agree completely and have thought about this idea for a while trying to contemplate equalization strategies. Doubt it would ever happen but i would like to see this-
First 20 picks for teams who miss the 8.
So each team who misses the 8 gets two top twenty picks. 2nd round- top 8 chooses two picks, after this a snake order is implemented for the rest
