I have never seen the lists to verify, so am just going off how the drafts typically play out with the early selections each year. The only question marks tend to be upon which order a generally understood group of players go.

I could be wrong, so please don't misconstrue my thoughts for ignorance. I'm merely a voice of non expertise making conversation.
There is evidence to what FDW is saying actually. PHI in the '13 draft had their draft board open on their draft day video and had all the D men ahead of the FW's. I think that was the Sam Morin draft for them, and they went almost all D then too. They identified their BPA as positional. Now their D corps depth is enviable.

I know it's only 1 example but its a pretty good one actually.
