Where Did The NFBC League Champs Draft From?

It's always interesting to look at the end of the season and see where the top owners drafted from. It has been very balanced in past NFBC seasons and it looks balanced again this year. No one spot or no top draft pick dominated among the 29 NFBC Main Event leagues. Here's the data for all 31 first place teams (there were two leagues that tied, so I used data from both teams):
No. 1 - 3 teams won league titles
No. 2 - 0 teams
No. 3 - 4 teams
No. 4 - 4 teams
No. 5 - 1 team
No. 6 - 4 teams
No. 7 - 2 teams
No. 8 - 3 teams
No. 9 - 2 teams
No. 10 - 2 teams
No. 11 - 1 team
No. 12 - 1 team
No. 13 - 1 team
No. 14 - 1 team
No. 15 - 2 teams
Nos. 1-5: 12 teams
Nos. 6-10: 13 teams
Nos. 11-15: 6 teams
It's interesting to note that league champs drafted in every spot except No. 2. It's even more interesting to note that no league champion had Hanley Ramirez on their team this year. Crazy.
No single player dominated on championship teams this year, but Albert Pujols led the way by being on four title teams. Just looking at the first round picks (not that they are the key, but just looking at common players), here were the players selected on championship teams:
Albert Pujols (4 teams)
Alex Rodriguez (3 teams)
Ryan Braun (3 teams)
Chase Utley (3 teams)
Mark Teixeira (3 teams)
Ryan Howard (3 teams)
Joe Mauer (2 teams)
Miguel Cabrera (2 teams)
Evan Longoria (2 teams)
Troy Tulowitzki (2 teams)
David Wright (1 team)
Carl Crawford (1 team)
Prince Fielder (1 team)
Matt Kemp (1 team)
No. 1 - 3 teams won league titles
No. 2 - 0 teams
No. 3 - 4 teams
No. 4 - 4 teams
No. 5 - 1 team
No. 6 - 4 teams
No. 7 - 2 teams
No. 8 - 3 teams
No. 9 - 2 teams
No. 10 - 2 teams
No. 11 - 1 team
No. 12 - 1 team
No. 13 - 1 team
No. 14 - 1 team
No. 15 - 2 teams
Nos. 1-5: 12 teams
Nos. 6-10: 13 teams
Nos. 11-15: 6 teams
