How he stacks up: Dane Bruger of The Athletic is high on Fano, listing him as the No. 8 overall prospect and top tackle prospect in the class.
"An impressive athlete for the position, Fano is quick out of his stance in pass protection and has the bend, balance and sudden hands to neutralize different types of rushers," Brugler wrote.
NFL media and draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah has Fano listed as the No. 14 overall prospect in his latest list of the Top 50 players available in the class. Only Miami's Francis Mauigoa is ranked higher by Jeremiah (No. 10) among tackles.
ESPN's Field Yates has Fano as the No. 3 tackle after Mauigoa and Georgia's Monroe Freeling. Same for fellow ESPN draft analyst Matt Miller.
Mel Kiper Jr. of ESPN has Fano as the No. 10 overall prospect on his latest Draft Big Board, but lists him as a guard, ahead of Penn State's Olaivavega Ioane, who is widely considered the best interior offensive lineman in the class.
"He is technically sound, ran 4.91 in the 40-yard dash and shows good punch to compensate for his lack of ideal arm length," Kiper wrote of Fano. "But with 32⅛-inch arms, I think he could kick inside in the pros."
What he had to say: "You're getting someone that's not gonna allow himself to fail," Fano said at the Combine. "I have too many people to prove right to allow myself to fail them and fail myself. So, I'm gonna do everything it takes to be great in this league."
