Yes, it seems they don't take draft status into the equation. I've simmed a few season to test draft classes and such, and a lot of times you will rookies who were taken in the 2nd round in the FA pool. Even if the player is horrible, teams in the NFL usually hold on to all 1-3 rounders through the first season at the very least. It's disappointing that teams will just release players willy nilly.
