Take out the Team Defense as an option, and draft individual defensive players instead.
In all the leagues I ran I transitioned them from team defenses to IDP's. Not a single person in those leagues had ever played it that way before, and everyone loved it.
The way it is done in my leagues:
1. Remove Team Defense
2. Add 1 LB position
3. Add 1 DB position (safety or cb)
4. Add 1 DL Position (dt or de)
I also removed kickers from all of my leagues, because I fucking hate them.
Once your league gets more experienced with using IDPs you can expand to more than 1 at each defensive position, but I would start with 1 each.
