If someone is making a lot of random picks, they'll probably get the boot anyways. If someone simply missed a draft due to unforeseeable circumstances, then they'll be much relieved that they got a good team. Or, what's more likely, they ran out of teams on their list and will take whoever, so it's not like the teams are going to be the greatest anyway. If 111 slips to the third round of a draft with one or two random teams, and gets picked by the randomizer for somebody, there are much worse problems than the randomizer!

I fail to see how replacing a team with a blanked-out square will help anything at all.
