Why didn't he have surgery last fall or winter? No season. No Pro Day.

That's really strange he waited until now to have the surgery? Anything along the spine could take months to recover. It has been a long time since he played live and competitively. This is his 3rd surgery, including ACL knee surgery 2 years ago. These surgeries will raise red flags and may hurt his draft status (top 5-10 pick per NFL).

He was never a 1st round pick as some here swore up and down that he was -- n2beaches 03/22/2021 8:04PM

He was universally considered a 1st round pick -- VTECHFAN 03/23/2021 1:17PM

I’ll just be happy if he gets drafted at this point. This isn’t good news. ** -- Hoakie82 03/23/2021 2:09PM

LOL! He'll get drafted. He'll be gone by the end of round 2 -- VTECHFAN 03/23/2021 2:12PM

I really hope you’re right but I wouldn’t bet on it. ** -- Hoakie82 03/23/2021 2:17PM

Some people here, and every major Draft/scout service. -- HWA 03/23/2021 10:19AM

A lot of red flags with Farley. A true risk/reward 1st round pick. ** -- Apex-Hokie 03/22/2021 4:30PM
