It wouldn't be a bad idea, but the problem with draw-go decks is you need away to draw cards (advantage generating draw like Divination not filtering cards like Preordain because even if you can counter everything eventually they will stick something when you run out of counter magic. The problem is there is no good instant speed draw in this format and if you use sorcery speed draw then you can't counter their stuff. You have to have a way to deal with on the board threats. Playing a draw-go control deck in this meta gives you a great matchup vs all of the other control decks but kills your aggro/ramp matchup. (Especially Valakut since you can't counter your lands)

I wouldn't do all, some combination of Spell Pierce, stoic, Mana Leak, Negate, and maybe a Deprive or two should do just fine.

That's not quite true.
