Dude had very little production in his 5 years at Auburn. Every year was supposed to be his breakout year and he was a bust in my opinion. Might have been a different story if he could have learned to not carry the ball like a loaf of bread.

he wasn't awful just wasn't excellent, perfect player for the combine imnsho, now he has a chance to prove himself to nfl scouts.

He has very good measurables, which is what the nfl scouts want to see out of him i bet. Since he wasn't in the games that much, they probably want to get another look at him.

He will shine at the combine. That's the type of player he is. Great in practice but can't turn it on when the lights come on. I remember tuberville calling him the next Reggie bush out of high school. Damn was he wrong

He had the physical measureables to be a great college player. Honestly, if he could get over his fumbling issue, he could be productive in some role for an NFL team.

It's not like someone will be trying to strip the ball from him. He'll be one of the better performers IMO. His numbers will be fantastic

He got an invite because he passes the eye test. Some team will throw money at him because he will "test" well and looks like Tarzan....

The only thing that held him back was the fumbling issue. He had everything else going for him but he just couldn't hold on to the ball. He'll shine in the combine and I hope someone picks him up and he can contribute somewhere.

Fannin was a 5th year senior and 3rd on the depth chart at running back...behind a freshman and sophomore.
