    There's a way to stop bottom tier teams from deliberately tanking in the consolation bracket, or dropping stud players (since you cant auto-lock them if they are in the consolation), and just maybe get them to care about winning during consolation playoff weeks. Here's how I handle it.

    Our teams draft the following year in reverse order of the previous years standings, excepting the consolation bracket, who will draft IN ORDER of final standing. It looks like this:

    (I have a 10 team league, with a 6 team playoff, 4 team consolation)

    Draft Pick - Previous Finish

    1 - 7th place (the winner of the consolation)
    2 - 8th
    3 - 9th
    4 - 10th
    5 - 6th
    6 - 5th
    7 - 4th
    8 - 3rd
    9 - 2nd
    10 - 1st (winner of the league)
