Bad idea. You´re just deleting anchor text "juice", that's pretty much all you´re doing.

If you want to steer link "juice" in the right direction then you have to come up with a better link structure for the website. Faking it with nofollows is not recomendable at all.

An optimized website also has the best link structure. If you feel like you need to use nofollows then you have the wrong link structure.
