At a guess, these failed the rebuilds, perhaps?
Most are likely just packages that haven't been rebuild during the past few devel cycles and hence still have the disstag from the F7, F8, F9, or F10 devel cycle. That's normal, as there is no need to rebuild big data packages without need, as that would force unnecessary downloads for people.
To find orphans use "yum list extras" or "package-cleanup --orphans" from yum-utils.
