I find a shit load of mushrooms at work. these were some of the promising looking ones i picked up today. i'm pretty new to this so is there anyone that can help me id these?
These first ones i found completely dried in some underbrush growing out of dead leaves. they look just like some mushrooms i bought an eighth of one time. Theyre kind of a goldish to dark brown color. stems are tall and skinny and the gills are a dark purple brown.

these next ones may or may not be the same thing as the first batch. i found these growing in a pile of mulch thats been sitting for a few years out in the woods. they are only about 50% dried out. have light tan to dark tan colored caps with a darker center on most. still have a partial veil on the stem and are slightly bruised a dark purplish color. the gills are about the same dark purple brown color as the first batch. there is also what looks like a partial spore print that is a dark brownish black on top of one of the caps where the mushrooms overlapped.

this third batch i think may be some type of gymnopilus species. i found them growing about 10 feet away in the same bed of mulch as the last batch. they have a dark brown stem and matching cap with gold rust colored gills. 
well hope these descriptions/pictures help. thanks in advance for your replies

Your last set are Pluteues,and some are active,although I think you have an inactive kind.
