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 Harold Fannin Jr., featuring his scouting report, strengths and weaknesses, his recent draft projection, and where all the experts predict he could land.
Harold Fannin Jr.’s NFL Draft Scouting Report
No prospect was more productive in the 2024 season than Bowling Green’s Harold Fannin Jr. He led all FBS pass-catchers — wide receivers and tight ends — in catches and receiving yards, with 117 catches for 1,555 yards and 10 scores.
Not only did Fannin feast against MAC opponents, but he also proved himself against his toughest foes, like Penn State and Texas A&M.
Fannin’s production has made him a darling of the NFL Draft community, and it points to his translatable pass-catching skill set. He’ll never be a great factor as a blocker and he’s not an elite size-adjusted athlete, but Fannin is sudden and savvy, as a route runner and RAC threat, and he’s physical and reliable with his hand-usage across phases.
At his maximum, he can be a route running and RAC specialist in the mold of Jordan Reed.
Harold Fannin Jr.’s NFL Draft Projection
In CSN’s 7-Round 2025 NFL Mock Draft from April 12, Fannin landed in Round 4 with the 105th overall pick.
And in CSN’s recent 2025 NFL Mock Draft for Day 2, Bjorn Bergstrom had this to say about Fannin’s selection to the Denver Broncos in Round 3 with the 85th pick:
Head coach Sean Payton has been adamant in his search for a versatile “H” player. They signed TE Evan Engram in the offseason, but at 30 years old, he’s more so the present than the future at that position.
Extremely versatile, athletic, and with great hands, Fannin would be an ideal fit for second-year QB Bo Nix as a new target.
