He was going for guys picked a little later in the draft. If you notice Percy Harvin in the earliest pick to make it on that list.

Yawn.
Who cares what Peter King thinks?
I never read his uninformed opinion pieces. So he went to journalism school, that does not make him a football expert. He is an overrated gas bag.

I don't agree with Peter King here necessarily, but I think people here tend to go a bit overboard in their disgust of him when he doesn't rush to praise the Skins.

I mean he was apparently brilliant just a couple of weeks ago

Don't forget how smitten he was with JC last year, now look at JC.

I don't really care what he or any other supposed expert says about the Redskins. At times I can be one of the biggest critics of the Skins when they play like shit or they sign an Archuleta or Jeff George. I just have never found Peter King very good source of good articles or sports news.

Did you read the article?

Yeah, and perhaps more importantly, i also read PK's article on SI.com. All he is saying is that the mentioned rookies impressed him. Really, who cares? I could honestly care less about our players individually, just let the damn team win double digit games and make it to the post season. That's all i want.

This is more of an "I told you so, I'm a genius" set-up. If any of these players are successful he'll say "See I saw that before everyone else." If not, no one will remember the article or he'll say, "So and so looked good in camp/pre-season, but didn't make the adjustment to the NFL."

surprise?

how can this many people be shocked at a peter king article, after being shocked at the last 45 columns he's written?

where's this reserve of shock and outrage hidden? I feel like i'm missing out...

I'm thinking along the lines of firstdown and hooskins when it's quite feasible that PK is talking about players he's actually seen in person...either way, if you think Orakpo was snubbed, talk to the other guys picked ahead of him...
