Summary
Strengths
Well built with long arms and straight line athleticism
Generates explosive power as a drive blocker at the LOS or when climbing to the 2nd level
Raw strength is extremely impressive with the ability to forklift defenders when he gains leverage with inside hands
Weaknesses
Can be late to pick up his assignment in pass protection
Twitchier rushers stress his mirroring
Will fall off blocks in pass pro as his base stops working with his punch
Final Report
Farmer is a gap scheme, powerful guard with straight-line athleticism. He shows off raw strength as a drive blocker to displace defensive tackles and open up rush lanes. Despite being a two year starter at right guard for Kentucky, his pass protection is a work in progress. He will be tested by twitch and has to learn to sync up his base with his hands. NFL coaching could develop Farmer into a starter that is a plus in an NFL run game.
