"Our own Doug Farrar had a […]"

2025
"com/IGw3ZsjmQi— Doug Farrar ✍ (@NFL_DougFarrar) March 10, 2025 It took the Bears exactly one day to drop the next hammer; that happened when they sent a 2026 fourth-round pick to the Kansas City Chiefs for Joe Thuney, one of the best guards of his era, and a guy who had to fill in at left tackle down the stretch for the AFC champions when their left tackle situation fell apart."

2024
"com/BKy1lXFZJ4— Doug Farrar ✍ (@NFL_DougFarrar) March 8, 2024 It’s unclear if the Lions are interested in signing Diggs or if Diggs is interested in signing with Detroit."

2023
"Defense tackle Jalen Carter, DT, Georgia Number 6: John Vogel (NFL Draft Blitz), Joe Broback (Pro Football Network) Bryan Bresee, DT, Clemson Number 18: JP Acosta (SB Nation), Doug Farrar (Touchdown Wire), Josh Edwards (CBS Sports), Ian Cummings (Pro Football Network) Calijah Kancey, DL, Pittsburgh Number 18: Kyle Yates (Football guys) Erik’s Thoughts: Bresee is still getting connected to the Lions on a regular basis, but now it’s exclusively at Number 18 as his stock is sliding."

2021
"But he told Doug Farrar of USA Today [more]"

2020
"“I love coach McCarthy,” Cobb said, via Doug Farrar of [more]"

2019
"What I'm Hearing: Touchdown Wire's Doug Farrar spoke with Steelers sources that say GM Kevin Colbert has unrealistic expectations for Antonio Brown's trade value."

2017
"Cian Fahey, John Middlekauff, Marcus Mosher, Mark Schofield, Duke Manyweather, Ethan Young, Joe Goodberry, Justis Mosqueda, Charles McDonald, Zach Kruse, Derrik Klassen, Jerod Brown, Ian Wharton, Kyle Posey, Mark Bullock, Chuck Zodda and Doug Farrar have watched tape for months to bring you these grades."

2016
" It's evident by this stat from Doug Farrar of Sports Illustrated, however, the Broncos defense also had a little something to do with that: Even if Belichick believes preparing against Manning today doesn't take the same amount of work it did in years past, he would never say that to the media."

2015
"com's Michael Silver and the San Jose Mercury News' Tim Kawakami all commented on how the paradigm is shifting in regard to how players are approaching their careers: The MMQB's Andrew Brandt explained how he thinks this news might impact the mindset of players going forward: Doug Farrar of Sports Illustrated wondered if Junior Seau's suicide played a role in Borland's decision along with the thinking of other younger players who hung up their cleats this spring: By retiring now, Borland is leaving potentially millions in future earnings on the table."

2014
" Doug Farrar of Sports Illustrated weighed in on Mallett's move into the starting role: At 4-5 heading into Week 10, the Texans could still make the playoffs with a hot second half of the season."
