Maxpreps has breakdown of where 1st round picks went to high school.  Only a handful went to schools whose names most would likely recognize.

...the Florida guys...interesting that 4 went to schools not considered traditional football powers but were still "found."  Their ESPN rating in high school is in parentheses after their names.

Derwin James(5-star)-Haines City/Florida St.

Isaiah Wynn(4-star)-St Petersburg Lakewood/Univ of Georgia

Hayden Hurst-Bolles(5-star)/Univ of South Carolina

Calvin Ridley(4-star)-Monarch/Univ of Alabama

Hayden Hurst only played 1 year of high school football. Pretty sure he wasn't a five star recruit.

Below is the link showing the 5 stars, but I had the same doubts as you and think there is an error.  With a scout grade like that, am guessing he may have been 4 stars.

Yeah that's wrong. Has him ranked as the 73rd best player in the ESPN150. When you go to the rankings he's no where to be found. Hurst wasn't considered a football recruit he was all baseball. I doubt they even ranked him coming out of high school. He had to walk on after his pro baseball career was over.
