Five best picks of the first-round of the 2021 NFL Draft

After falling pre-draft due to concerns surrounding a back injury suffered while deadlifting at Virginia Tech previous to the 2019 season. Playing through injury throughout the season, Farley still managed to manufacture impressive tape with his aggressive style of play centered around his elite athleticism.

With a potential top cornerback falling beyond the front-half of the first-round, Farley was certain to be a steal for whichever franchise took the chance.

Formerly led by veteran Janoris Jenkins and 2020 draft selection Kristian Fulton, the Tennessee Titans were left without a clear future in the defensive secondary beyond safety Kevin Byard following free agency.

Now with an elite athlete in their secondary to pair alongside the speedy LSU product Fulton, Tennessee finds themselves with an impressive young pairing of athletes who can keep pace with any opposition to be faced within the AFC South.

Within a team that has embraced the personality of their head coach Mike Vrabel, the Tennesee Titans have become a roster that plays with grit and punches well above their weight. Farley is an encapsulation of this very mentality, which will help him fit perfectly into the Titans’ defensive scheme from day one.

Alongside Fulton, the Titans can rely upon their young defenders to successfully match up against the NFL’s elite on the boundary in isolation coverage.
