Nothing against Harold Fannin Jr. as a player -- I see an excellent career ahead for him -- but I typically go against the crowd at tight end. Fannin had just about the best numbers anyone could've possibly expected from him in Cleveland last year, and the departure of David Njoku will surely heighten his draft-day price. Defenses will be more prepared for him this season, the Browns' quarterback situation remains a mess, and it's worth pointing out that Fannin has put in suspiciously little practice time throughout the offseason process.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Fannin's elevated ADP and limited offseason work suggest regression from 2025 peak.

Fannin had excellent 2025 numbers in Cleveland, but his ADP has risen significantly due to David Njoku's departure. However, defenses will be more prepared for him this season, the Browns' QB situation remains a mess, and he has put in suspiciously little practice time throughout the offseason. It is difficult to envision him exceeding his 2025 fantasy points total, but his ADP suggests people think he will.
