A more complete listing is at:

The top 100 which is through the early 4th round seldom includes a lot of
college players. Most of the college players there are recruits thus still
listed with the team they played with last season. Number #100 Michael
Knoepfli is coming got Cornell next year according to the standard sources.
Many (most? all?) of the players chosen in the first two or even three
rounds will leave college to go pro before they graduate. The pro's will
make them an offer they can not refuse.
