elite-length, ball-hawking corner with Pro-level upside—but durability is the headline
Farley’s calling card is rare cornerback size, speed, and recovery ability, which helped him emerge at Virginia Tech as a top pass defender; in the 2020 season, he was credited with 16 passes defended and 4 interceptions, and analysts raved about his press-man fit and explosive closing burst[7][13]. The caution flag is just as loud: his profile has long been shaped by knee and back injuries, plus lost development time, so he fits best for teams that value upside, physical coverage, and patience over week-to-week availability[11][14].
