I think you need a lot of variables and rules or else someone will abuse the system. A league I was in years back had a Rule 5 Draft with simplified rules and it ran very smooth. But I felt there was a big flaw in the system. The flaw was that you could choose your protect lists and thus leaving your aging veterans/big contracts exposed to the draft in order to protect more prospects.
I've proposed this in some past leagues, so I'd support this idea, but in the end I think the work is too much for what the benefit would be.
