Yeah I give him credit for even putting this together but it's so out of place.
Marshawn Lynch ahead of Willie Parker?
Aaron Kampman ahead of Larry Johnson?
Stephen Jackson behind Reggie Bush.
And there are so many others.
Ryan Denney a backup DE ahead of the Bills best LB Angelo Crowell?
Jon Kitna ahead of everyone?

how is brian westbrook #96? maybe i just see the eagles alot but he's as versatile on bush and at this point is better (though teams might not gameplan for him as much, and that could be a stretch)

LOL. I missed this one the first couple of times I checked it.
Wes Welker over Lee Evans and Anquan Boldin.
Someone justify this to me.

No king article is worth 5 minutes to read, let alone 40.

Yea that ones really confusing, he also shouldnt be ahead of Colston, Chambers, Randy Moss or Deion Branch.
Jay Cutler at 91? Are you kidding me? (The 11th highest QB on the list)
Elisha Manning and Chad Pennington ahead of Romo and Favre?
Rex Grossman at 166 is a complete joke too.

Everyone pretty much agrees the picks are bogus but that one is because the guy is white? wow!

But King explains it so well; Welker is a threat to catch 90 passes, whereas Evans is only a threat to catch 95 with a significantly worse QB

It's so funny how he started off so well (going from 1-500), then after the 12th pick it just started to go downhill.

You forgot that not only is he white but he plays for the Patriots. Apparently Peter King is a Patriots homer.

Peter King is a Bill Parcells/Bill Belichek underwear sniffer. Everything they do, he adores it.

Please people, do not waste time arguing over this list.
This list is the most pathetic attempt at 'journalism' I have ever seen. Peter King is being incredibly arrogant to think he knows enough football to even put this list together. His 'criteria' is a joke. What a moron.
I always knew Peter King didn't know $hit about football, and this list further cements that theory. What a phony.

Teams definitely gameplan for Westbrook quite a lot, he carried the Eagles to the playoffs last year. Don't people remember this?
To have Reggie Bush ranked 19th and Westbrook 96th is an unfathomable joke. Reggie bush carried the ball last year 155 times for 565 yards for 3.6 avg. He caught 88 passes for 742 yards for an 8.4 avg. While Westbrook carried the ball 240 times for 1217 yards and 5.1 yards per rush. He caught 77 passes for 699 yards and a 9.1 avg.
Almost as idiotic is having Carson Palmer ranked 9th, while Donovan McNabb is ranked 72nd. But at least an argument can be made that Carson Palmer is the better QB. Not necessarily a strong argument, but at least it can be made, unlike Bush over Westbrook.
Another example of how unbelievably dumb this list is, consider that the Eagles long time LT William Thomas isn't on the list, while their third string rookie QB Kevin Kolb is ranked 476th.
To say this list is awful is a huge understatement. Oh well, means absolutely nothing anyway.
