The 2025 NFL Draft is upon us, and so is your need to be prepared for all of tomorrow’s stars. Dive into our spotlight on Joshua Farmer, featuring his scouting report, strengths and weaknesses, his recent draft projection, and where all the experts predict he could land.
Joshua Farmer’s NFL Draft Scouting Report
Joshua Farmer is one of the highest-ceiling DT prospects in the Day 2 range. Physically, he checks almost every box.
At 6’3″, 305 pounds, with 35″ arms, he has an elite combination of natural leverage and proportional length, and as his athletic testing corroborated — a 5.11 40-yard dash, a 29″ vertical, and a 9’4″ broad jump — he has the explosiveness to quickly get downhill and penetrate gaps.
That explosion and length took over when he had runways to pursue plays in college. He’s still very much up-and-down in terms of operational consistency, and despite his natural leverage, his high-hipped frame can cause him to drift upright with his pad level.
Despite this, whether he plays as an even-front defensive tackle or an odd-front end, he remains a valuable prospect for development with significant potential.

CSN’s 7-Round 2025 NFL Mock Draft
On April 12, Farmer was selected in Round 3 as the 99th overall pick. According to James Fragoza, here’s what he had to comment on this selection:
Joshua Farmer isn’t the flashiest prospect, but he can two-gap with some of the best in the class and would instantly boost the Giants’ run defense.
And in CSN’s recent

Bjorn Bergstrom commented on Farmer being chosen by the Chicago Bears in round three as the 72nd pick like this:
In the center stands an impressive presence in the form of Farmer, who tallied 14 tackles behind the line of scrimmage and registered eight sacks over his tenure as a starting linebacker at Florida State University. Known for his robust upper body strength, he possesses the ability to handle double teams effectively—a trait that the Bears intend to seek out in this year’s draft as they aim to bolster their pass-rushing capabilities.
