How about a bit theory crafting? I'm thinking about playing Draven with Essence Reaver instead of an attack speed item, and just having Blood Rush running permanently.

As far as I can see, it's just perfect for him: Draven doesn't want too much AS, and he profits from AD (as long as he has axes to throw) even more than by building Crit. With the mana sustain he gets, he now can Blood Rush for every axe, and anyway have it up permanently (just catch 1 axe in 3 seconds [or 6 seconds, if you time it correctly]), and with his huge Q damage, the early life steal will do quite some work as well.

Going further, now you can just skip Bloodthirster, as all you ever built it for was lifesteal and damage, and have 1 spot you can just clunch in everything you want to - you built pure damage yet, so you can easily fit in a SotD if you want to go for improved all-ins, or build trinity if you want to build balanced (as you now can freely activate Blood Rush, this means free procs), go for Youmus to achieve the best sustained damage value, or even throw in a Maw of Malmortius.
