I like the SBNation draft lottery idea. Lottery actually decides 10-15 picks and every team is in the lottery. There are a few different ways you could try to allocate the odds, but none work out perfect.
I worked one out that gives the best team in the league a 1% shot. Each subsequent position has odds about 7.316% higher than the previous pick. The second best team's odds would be around 1.07316%. The odds for the 3 worst teams would end up being around 7.74883%, 7.22060%, and 6.72837%. There would have to be some rounding involved to get to a manageable number of balls

Yeah. After reading the tanking piece and Zillers reforms, I like that much more than any fixed lottery or more radical solution.
