Correct me if I'm wrong, but the order of the tags should be irrelevant in this case. The runner from first is forced to second because of the non-catch, and therefore is the only one of the three who has the right to occupy second and cannot be out as long as he remains there. Even if the batter/runner is tagged first while all three are standing on second - thus taking off the force - the lead runner is still forced to third by the runner from first properly advancing to second on the non-catch.
Correct or not?
