Fantasy football draft order probability

My friends and I take part in a 12 person fantasy football league. The draft order is determined by pulling names out of a hat at random during the draft party at a friends house. My friend and I were not physically present at the draft party, but the other 10 people were. What are the chances that my friend and I, who were not there, would be the 11th and the final (12th) names pulled from the hat? I know it’s an 8.3% chance to be any number 1-12 but I dont’t know about combining my friend, and my odds, as well as incorporating our absense from this “curious” hat draw that took place.
