I was checking out the draft summary for SSL III and I was somewhat suprised to see that all 5 teams that have been booted in our league drafted in the last half of the 1st round. This made me curious to see if there was a correlation between draft position & team strength in the other 4 SSL leagues.
Here is what I found:
1st Pick - 0 teams out
2nd Pick - 1 team out
3rd Pick - 0 teams out
4th Pick - 0 teams out
5th Pick - 1 team out
6th Pick - 1 team out
7th Pick - 1 team out
8th Pick - 3 teams out
9th Pick - 1 team out
10th Pick - 1 team out
11th Pick - 3 teams out
12th Pick - 2 teams out
13th Pick - 2 teams out
14th Pick - 1 team out
15th Pick - 2 teams out
16th Pick - 1 team out
I don't know if this holds true to the other survivor leagues because I don't participate in any others, but it sure appears that there is a definite advantage to being at the top of the draft order.
