    Farley all year it seems was talked about as being a possible top 10 pick. His recent back surgery and the run on QBs that is going to happen might push him down the board. Similar story to Big Jeff.

    What I like the most about Farley is that he was asked to play a bunch of different alignments in Bud Foster's defense...press man, off man, zone...he has great play recognition which combined with his physical attributes makes him a top 10 pick type of guy.

    Can JRob afford to take a chance on Farley if he is their at 22 given how last yrs draft went?

    I've seen mocks with him falling to the 30s and some say he's a top 5 talent. JRob has shown (with Big Jeff) that he's not afraid to take a player in the 1st round that's coming off an injury. Not only that, it is a position of need. If he's there at 22 I hope JRob trips over himself that he's trying to turn that card in so quickly.

    I feel like he may go before 22 unfortunately.

    If he is there I would be VERY happy if we got him at 22 and then went Edge, DT & WR in rounds two and three.

    Totally agree. I don't think he's going to last until 22. The Cardinals will swoop him up before us.

    I'd love to have Farley though and I totally see the risk/reward of Simmons in play here.

    Farley is the player I want at 22.

    I am willing to bet there's a run on DB's in from 8 to 20.

    Surtain, Horn, Farley, Newsome -- all I'm feeling with be gone before even 21.

    If our medical staff is confident that his medicals are ok, then get him. I'd be thrilled to get that guy, even if a small trade up is required.

    The Colts worry me a bit picking right before us, but I feel like they have to go OL early and often, especially with Carson “They Call Me Mr. Glass” Wentz back there now.

    No hope in getting Horn and Surtain.

    We have a chance at Farley and Newsome.. I personally don't think we get a chance at Farley.

    Farley was a gamble, love the pick, hoping his back is good. Jrob can't afford back to back 1st round picks failing
