Idea for Regional Drafts

Loving the addition for Regional Drafts to game in 22.

I wonder if is was possible to add a dynamic regional draft. So for the regional rounds instead of selecting a state/country/region, a team has exclusive rights to players within a standard range like 100 miles, a user-entered value, or maybe even a 'closest to' function, where the team has rights to the players from towns closest to the team regardless of distance (i.e. Detroit Tigers would have rights to players from Toledo instead of Cleveland, since Toledo in closer to Detroit even though it is in Ohio)

Since the game has imbedded Lat/Long for both team location and player location, it might not be all that difficult to implement a calculate distance formula to achieve that part.
