Unfortunately, I don't think so. The actual cause of Killebrew's problem is that he manually changed the draft to a date in the next year, so if he does that again, it'll happen the same way. And if you let OOTP handle the draft scheduling, it won't schedule an off-season reveal (because the annual reveal was already "exhausted" on day 2 of the pre-season 11 months earlier). In other words, there won't be duplication, but OOTP will ignore the 55 days setting and just schedule the Pre-season Day 2 reveal.
What's needed here is for OOTP to dis-associate the reveal and the draft so that they can happen in different seasons (where OOTP's definition of "season" = "begins on Day 1 of the pre-season and ends on the last day of the off-season").
In fact, there's still a small problem if you try to do split off-season/pre-season draft settings right from the Create Game setup, because OOTP would need to schedule two reveals for the same season at the beginning (e.g. once for January 2007, once for January 2008), and it doesn't do that right now. The only way to get two such drafts is by changing the draft date manually after the first draft has taken place, i.e. what Killebrew did.
