Angelo Esposito, Oliver Kylington, Fowler, Chychrun, Grigorenko, Aatu Raty, Brad Lambert

Those guys are recent examples talked about as top 5 picks in their Draft-1 that fell in their draft year.

Nobody has really gotten an absolute steal in these cases, which Chychrun probably being the best of the bunch so far.
