There would have been one other system I would have been tempted to use, it's an auction draft.
Basically, every captain has a set budget. Each captain takes it in turn to nominate a player they want, and bid on them. If no-one else beats that bid, they get the player. If another captain bids higher then they can bid even higher, etc, until there are no more bids.
What it means is that any captain has the chance to get any player they want.
The downside is that I think everyone would have to practice it a few times, to get an idea of a good strategy to make a team. I think a lot of people would blow their budget to get 2 or three 3 good players, and end up with a really unbalanced team.
It's great in theory, and great for fantasy football nerds, not so sure if it works in real life, where having a fun and fair tournament is more important than having a perfect draft system.
