The Seminoles have been known for producing top-tier defensive line talent, with Jared Verse and Braden Fiske both wreaking havoc in offensive backfields throughout the 2024 season. Both players were finalists for the Defensive Rookie of the Year Award, with Verse taking the mantle.

With the 2025 NFL Draft beginning Thursday, Reuter has former FSU DT Josh Farmer heading to the San Francisco 49ers with the 75th selection in this year's proceedings.

Farmer provided some impressive statistics for the 'Noles on the football field during his four seasons with the team.

During his collegiate career, the Florida State DT played in 42 games for the Seminoles and recorded 80 total tackles, 21 tackles for loss, two pass deflections, 11 sacks, and one forced fumble.

The 2025 NFL Draft takes place in Green Bay, Wisconsin from April 24-26.
