Joshua Farmer thought he might be a first or second round pick. That’s where many evaluators had him pegged.
The Florida State defensive lineman, however, had to wait until the fourth round. That’s when the Patriots moved up the board, making a trade with Cleveland, to snag Farmer with the 137 overall pick.
Speaking via Zoom call with the media, Farmer bemoaned the fact there were quite a few defensive tackles taken ahead of him.
“I think there was 17 defensive tackles taken ahead of me. Everybody in the world knows that’s not how it was supposed to go,” he said.
