Mine are kind of weird, but I'm getting board with the same old JLA. No Red Tornado. No Elongated Man.
1. I would LOVE to see.....The Seven Soldiers of Victory. Obviously Stargirl replaces SSK. Vigilante and Shining Knight are still around. There's some archers that could take GA and speedy's place. Crimson Avenger would be someone with a red power ring. Stripsy's not going to fit in.
2. Global Guardians. This was a decent team. The could be a great book.
3. Metal Men
I'd read this.
Though to be quite honest I am not sure about the inclusion of Constantine and Winters. Constantine in JLD never really fit and when he did it felt like he stole the show. Winters on the other hand... well I know he's mystically related, but I am not sure how safe it is for anyone remain around him since his own Nightforce appeared to have quite a bit of a turnover in memberships.
I might suggest replacing one or two with Zauriel (balancing out the two demons) and Animal Man (giving you a link to the Red, Green and Rot).
I agree. Constantine shouldn't be a team player. It's fun when he team-ups sometimes, but he became the sole focus of JLD too easily (I guess it helped that Lemire can't write team books).
I'd love to see a new iteration of the old 7SoV team. Stargirl and STRIPE are musts, and like you said, Vigilante and Shining Knight are still around. For the rest, I'd use the Crimson Dynamo who was showing up in JSA, a revised take on the old Fawcett character the Golden Arrow, and since Wing was the unofficial 8th member, maybe bring in the Sonia Sato Judomaster (rather than another redundant archer character).

Pretty obscure characters DC hasn't used in a long time.
Done with DC. Can't handle the constant whiplash! Time to go on a hiatus!
I'd be down for a new Seven Soldiers book. Not sure why you're kicking Pat to the curb if you're putting in Courtney. He has the S.T.R.I.P.E identity/mech suit.
Also, instead of making ANOTHER Crimson Avenger, this would be the 4th, I'd revamp the Spirit of Vengeance Crimson Avenger.
The Brotherhood of Evil. Gerald isn't interested in doing standard superhero fare with Doom Patrol and fine with me. They'll probably show up in Titans.
And judging by Dark Days/Metal, I can cross Outsiders and Challengers from my list.
