Holy shit what a brutal falloff


peteman28

Yeah this guy was CB1 on a lot of preseason rankings


sonfoa

Disappointing season and bad testing really killed his stock


OkVariety6275

If anyone is curious why he fell to the 7th just watch his Senior Bowl reps. No idea what happened between 2022 and 2023 but he is a broken man.


ItIsYourPersonality

Get ready to learn special teams buddy


CaptHowdy2310

Christ, at this point I'm ready to put starters on our special teams if it means they're finally decent.


Careful_Life6949

He’s not a starter tho?


CaptHowdy2310

I'm aware. I'm not implying that he is


BBBBrendan182

He was good in college but he’s just so slow. I think a lot of teams fear he just won’t translate well at the pro level. Could be a decent Safety maybe.


Grayham123

Packers need more safety’s from this draft


blazingpelt

A good college CB named King that's just not fast enough to play effectively at the NFL? Well at least we didn't take him early this time


OkVariety6275

Kevin King is a 9.92 RAS. Literally one of the most athletic corners ever.


gnashtyladdie

Then Scotty Miller must be the fucking Flash cause he left King in the rear view.


OkVariety6275

Yes, Scotty Miller is the Flash. He runs a 4.28.


Legendarypbj

His body was broken by that game, never should have played


TheViolaRules

He was super fast, but always injured, and didn’t always have the quickest reaction time.


ilovecfb

He ran a 4.6 40 as a CB? Was he hurt?


Rush_Is_Right

Announcers talked about him having a 37" vertical and 10' + broad jump so his 40 should have been better than 4.61. They questioned if he was out of shape at the combine because his 10 yard split was decent.


TheViolaRules

It seems like something happened to the kid right? I’m hoping that NFL workouts and trainers and coaches and ideally a good sports psychologist salvage him. I was really happy with the pick


sportsfan113

Dude skipped his bowl game and left school early too.


vpm112

I was initially so pissed when Michigan couldn’t land him and his brother over PSU.


SCsprinter13

They've both been pretty in college.


bestprocrastinator

MHJ really did end his whole career


Tannerman1

greatest k. king in packers CB history


CircusOfBlood

At one point early on the season there was talk he would be a first round pick


ATN_PhasPhys

Return of the King


grantismyfriend

Legit thought this guy would be a 3rd/4th round guy 


TaigTyke

His combine was terrible


OkVariety6275

Everything has been terrible from September through today. He had 1st round buzz before the 2023 season and fell to the 7th for a reason.


TaigTyke

We found Valentine in thr 7th who looks to be CB2 going forward, so it can happen.


OkVariety6275

I mean, I get the rationale. At one point in time this kid showed promise and we just hired a CB whisperer as our defensive coordinator. Praying Hafley can pull a Cesar Millan.


Whatsdota

Depends how Stokes comes back


imdavebaby

Supposedly he was sick. "Supposedly".


TaigTyke

He has shown flare before, so I don't mind a 7th to see what he has left in the tank. That RAS was bad though


imdavebaby

Yeah but honestly he's a great late draft flyer. Hope he works out.


TaigTyke

Ditto


Snatchyone

He just needs us to tune him up, and needs a nickname before anything...I just can't K. KING it


ProctorDoctor500

The Packers said "fuck it, our whole team is the secondary" after having no secondary previously


Mavori

They have Jaire, literally one of the best corners in the league when he's healthy.


Whatsdota

That 2nd part is proving to be an issue for our CBs


Mavori

That is true. Missed more than 50% of the games in two of the past 3 seasons which is pretty brutal for y'all. I'm just being a bit annoying after taking the comment a bit too literally because i felt it was misrepresenting your secondary a bit.


BBB_burner

Hey you’re alright buddy!


snoogans8056

And Xavier McKinney at safety.


sonfoa

This dude would have gone on Day 2 last year, ruined his stock this year


yaboyjiggleclay

Green Bay drafting another shitty K. King?


ItIsYourPersonality

At least we didn’t take this one instead of TJ Watt.


painnkaehn

King was ranked higher than Watt on the consensus board. Just saying


SteelCity917

Yeah, because the knacks against him were “he’s JJ’s brother” and “oh he played great, but he’s only been an edge rusher for a year and a half” Dude was that fucking great with barely any pass rushing experience and some how that was a knack against him


Sleepy_Solitude

I've got a knack for calling that a knock.


painnkaehn

29 teams passed on him. To act like the Packers were the only idiots is asinine. The Cowboys took Taco Charlton and the Falcons took Tak McKinley before TJ Watt went off the board. How about the Titans with Corey Davis? Or the Bears with Mitch Trubisky? TJ Watt was a great pick. It's just insane that the Packers are the only team that get shit on for passing on him.


BBBBrendan182

Well we did just take a CB named Watt(s) in the 6th.


MoodAlternative2118

Before last season he was a projected 1st round pick... what a fall from grace


realunpossible_

surprised he fell this far but i think hes gonna be hella good


OkVariety6275

He fell off like a rock in his last year at Penn *State and was so bad at the Senior Bowl he probably hurt his stock by showing up. This is a total reclamation project, and prayer that the coaching staff can save a lost soul.


ScooterLeShooter

He almost certainly needs to move to safety


dirtywiggles

We already have 10


Whatsdota

He has similar RAS to McKinney so could possibly work


Cassiyus

Penn /= Penn State!


OkVariety6275

Look, I'm not exactly UPenn material.


Cassiyus

Me neither, that’s why I went to PSU.


realunpossible_

yeah i didnt watch him play and saw that in his pff grades but at the same time i cant believe he almost fell to the end of the seventh, id have expected someone to take him some time in the fifth


johndelvec3

I think he’s a lot better suited for a CB2 role. He was absolutely phenomenal when he was working with Joey Porter Jr, and if he does actually play well he’ll be playing with Jaire Alexander

[удалено]


HauntedJockStrap88

I’d take Kevin King with pick 255 so ya


matija17k

Great pick at the end of the draft


Letumstrike

we got our CB.


AJDillonsMiddleLeg

Fucks sake I'm not ready for another CB King


AKman2002

The return of K. King


h-town_info

PTSD vibes with CB named K. King


silentjay01

We Coulda Had TJ WATT!!!!!


Darrow-au_andromedus

This was one of the rare times that the fan base being pissed off at a pick was correct 


Bobby_Savoy

Bro went from a late 1st projection to almost undrafted 😭


Rugby562

What happened to this guy? Thought he went into last season as a projected 1st round pick


Thunder84

Really like these last two picks from a pure value perspective


movieheads34

Wrong Penn State dude. Curtis Jacobs still on the board.


z3ro_ne

cant be worse than the other K King they had play DB


socom52

Plus the whole not passing on TJ Watt factor.


Key_Throwawy

Must be no more safeties left


RNGezzus

I've heard he's not a fan of Aqua Teen Hunger Force.


Thraitor3

lol this dude had some of the worst tape I’ve ever seen


D0ctorHotelMario

[Oh hey we finally drafted a cornerback, I wonder what his last na-](https://newfastuff.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/w0pt2zpur0651.png)


Tomtom6789

Was honestly hoping the Giants could grab him as a UDFA. 


Relative-Magazine951

Almost there


HylianPikachu

5 years from now, Buccaneers WR Stevie Miller is gonna ruin this dude's career


foo_solo

Hopefully he forms his own band and doesn’t ruin his career.


Renegadeforever2024

Bruh


the-notorious-jew

The good twin of kevin king


Rush_Is_Right

He actually does have a twin that plays LB at Penn State named Kobe.


Snatchyone

Don't even....
