"Excellent guy,” President Trump said of Papadopoulos last year.

But now that he has pleaded guilty to making a false statement to FBI investigators, Team Trump is casting him not as “excellent” but as practically nonexistent.

Why Skeptical?
Because by resorting to a public defender, he shows to the courts he was unaware of being a subject or co-conspirator, however, as Manafort's right hand man, it's more than likely he did find out. But to give the perception he didn't know, it provides a cover to what he could have done to cover up the crimes following being made aware (by Manafort).
