A while back I said he would go in the 2nd or even 3rd round.

I still feel that way. Its not that I don't want him to succeed. I can even admit he probably has the most upside of any CB in the draft when healthy. The problem is if I am a GM and I can draft a CB that is close enough to Farley athletically. I would prefer to do that instead. Its not like there aren't any other legit starting CBs available in the draft. Farley would scare me as a pick if my job were on the line, and fans tend to notice first round misses. Even if I were sold on his recovery from injury, do I trust him to make an open field tackle against an NFL level skill player? I can't say I've seen enough of him to justify paying him first round money. I do hope it works out for him though. I'd be happy if he was taken in the first round, but I just don't see it happening.

Caleb Farley tests positive for Covid, won’t attend draft. ** -- PSUHokie8705 04/28/2021 08:47AM

I feel horrible for him. I hope his body of work still gets him drafted -- Fatman 04/28/2021 12:21PM

I still doubt he falls out of round 1... -- VTECHFAN 04/28/2021 12:55PM

Lol. Round 3. ** -- Pride_and_Joy 04/28/2021 5:06PM

Are you saying he'll go round 3? -- VTECHFAN 04/28/2021 5:58PM

I just don’t see any way he falls to the 3rd. -- Pride_and_Joy 04/28/2021 6:10PM

I agree... I doubt he falls that far... -- VTECHFAN 04/28/2021 7:33PM

I doubt he slips to the 2nd. He’s an elite athlete... -- Pride_and_Joy 04/28/2021 8:35PM

It will be interesting to see... -- VTECHFAN 04/28/2021 9:04PM

Sad, what an incredible person and way to respond though. -- dreadnaughty13 04/28/2021 12:17PM

Panthers seem to like him (link) -- Hokie Bird 04/28/2021 11:16AM

Man that would be sweet -- VeloVT 04/28/2021 1:25PM

Anyone else believe he will be a bust? -- Screenwriter 04/28/2021 08:55AM

See 2019 season with and without Farley -- VTECHFAN 04/28/2021 9:06PM

I mean, he doesn't seem like a bad guy but..... -- Zanderhokie 04/28/2021 11:52AM

Missing on a CB won't cost a GM a job; missing on QBs does that ** -- BROman Hokie 04/28/2021 1:03PM

Wow the irony is just.... ** -- Technocrat 04/28/2021 08:53AM

There's a simple explanation for this... -- WildTurkE 04/28/2021 10:04AM

Technically that’s five simple explanations ** -- lawhokie 04/29/2021 11:38AM

The NFL tests players invited for draft -- lchoro 04/28/2021 1:08PM

And this was a guy who was so concerned about Covid, he quit the team. -- Stork 04/28/2021 11:11AM

If you saw the shape his dad is in you would understand his concern -- fordham 04/29/2021 10:10AM

I think you covered every scenario... ** -- TekkNerd 04/28/2021 10:56AM

Including several which aren’t correct ** -- marcbvtgm 04/28/2021 4:45PM

Thankfully there are far fewer false positives today. -- EDGEMAN 04/28/2021 10:36AM

Don’t think I’ve ever agreed with you more... ** -- Tombo 04/28/2021 2:02PM

OMG....no additional comment required* ** -- sacramento hokie 04/28/2021 10:07AM

My second though exactly (after hoping he recovers quickly) ** -- Happy Dog 04/28/2021 09:25AM

Another medical issue when he doesn't need one... -- EDGEMAN 04/28/2021 08:51AM
