(Last Updated: April 17, 2025)
1. Brant Kuithe, Utah
FB/TE | 6’2″ | 236 lbs | 7th Year
Brant Kuithe is an undersized tight end who will spend most of his time in the NFL as a fullback or motioning out to the slot.
His athleticism for the position and extensive experience as a 7th year player help him thrive in a scheme that is willing to line him up all over the field in search of mismatches. He won’t have the strength to routinely win as an inline blocking tight end, and will need to improve his run blocking to sustain an NFL career. But Kuithe is a smooth route runner with very soft hands and a high football IQ who is willing to do whatever it takes to win a football game.
Brant Kuithe 2024 Stats
9 games: 35 receptions, 505 receiving yards, 6 receiving touchdowns, 14.4 yards per catch, 8 carries, 26 rushing yard, 2 rushing touchdowns, 3.3 yards per attempt
2. Jared Casey, Kansas
FB | 5’11” | 230 lbs | 4th Year
Jared Casey is one of the only true fullback prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft, with experience lining up in the backfield, inline as a tight end, and out wide as a receiver.
The 5th year fullback started as a walk-on, but it didn’t take long for him to become a Kansas Jayhawk legend and prove he belongs at the division 1 level. Casey has good hands and enough fluidity to hold his own as a route runner. He has plenty of strength as a blocker and should benefit from a full time switch to fullback. NFL teams wants players like Casey to round out the bottom of their roster, and he has plenty of versatility to sneak onto a roster as a do-it-all fullback.
Jared Casey 2024 Stats
12 games: 18 receptions, 203 receiving yards, 2 receiving touchdowns, 11.3 yards per catch, 1 carry, 1 rushing yard
3. Pat Conroy, Old Dominion
FB/TE | 6’2″ | 240 lbs | 6th Year
Pat Conroy is an athletic fullback / tight end hybrid with experience as a lead blocker who proved himself as a legitimate receiving threat this past season.
Conroy’s 523 receiving yards ranked 1st among all D1 players I listed at fullback this season, showing reliable hands and quickness in and out of his breaks. He was able to show some breakaway speed on multiple occasions this season, and has enough speed to create mismatches against NFL defenses.
He is tough as a blocker, but doesn’t have too much experience running the football.
Pat Conroy 2024 Stats
12 games: 523 receiving yards, 5 receiving touchdowns, 14.1 yards per catch
4. Brock Lampe, Northern Illinois
FB | 6’1″ | 255 lbs | 4th Year
Brock Lampe is one of the only players in the class who will be ready to play a traditional fullback role from day 1.
Lampe started his college career as a linebacker, but converted to fullback prior to the end of his freshman season. He immediately left his mark on special teams, and started seeing regular use as a fullback as a sophomore in 2022.
Lampe has a powerful build that allows him to excel as a blocker, both in the run and pass game. While he lacks the height and length to be viewed as an inline tight end, he’s fully capable of lining up there and holding his own from time to time. He’s shown consistent hands throughout his career, and has been a locker room leader for the Huskies.
Brock Lampe 2024 Stats
13 games: 9 receptions, 91 receiving yards, 1 receiving touchdowns, 10.1 yards per catch, 7 carries, 14 rushing yard, 1 rushing touchdowns, 2.0 yards per attempt
5. Stevo Klotz, Iowa State
FB/TE | 6’4″ | 247 lbs | 5th Year
Stevo Klotz looks the part of an inline tight end with his 6’4″ 245lb frame, but he lined up extensively in the backfield as a lead blocker for the Cyclones.
Klotz has great vision and keeps his pads low into his blocks, with the strength to open up holes as a run blocker or pass protect. His size gives him the versatility to line up all over the field, with enough overall athleticism to contribute as a receiver or goal line runner in the NFL.
Stevo Klotz 2024 Stats
13 games: 8 receptions, 89 receiving yards, 1 receiving touchdown, 11.1 yards per catch, 22 rushing yards, 11.0 yards per attempt

Traits That Make a FB Prospect Great
Fullback can be hard to scout because so many of them convert from running back, tight end, or even linebacker. They aren’t heavily used, but can play a pivotal role on select teams. Run blocking, football IQ, and special teams experience are among the most important factors of scouting the top fullback prospects.
Some of the factors we consider when scouting are included below.
Versatility
It might be a stretch to call “versatility” a trait, but fullback draft prospects need to have it if they’re going to make a roster in the modern NFL. If they’ve shown the ability to line up all over the field (backfield, inline, slot, special teams, etc.), they likely have the work ethic and mental traits to serve a versatile role at the next level.
Run Blocking
Run blocking is probably still the biggest role of an NFL fullback. Experience as a lead blocker is preferred, but staying low and maintaining a strong base as an inline blocker is also a benefit.
Contact Balance
Contact balance will help every time a fullback touches the ball, but it will also help to maintain proper positioning as a blocker. When the fullback touches the ball, you need to be able to deflect would-be tacklers. Staying low and running hard with the ball in your hands is necessary.
Hands
Fullbacks are getting less work as runners, but more work as receivers. Having soft hands, good ball security, and the natural ability to attack the ball at the catch point will help them take advantage of their opportunities and find a way onto the field.
Overall Opinion of the 2025 FB Class
The opinion of the fullback class always depends on how many tight ends and running backs you label as fullbacks. As of right now, the class doesn’t seem particularly strong.
We usually see 1-2 players who look like traditional NFL fullbacks while also having traits to be drafted as a tight end or running back, but that’s not the case this year. Every prospect has at least one major flaw, whether it be blocking, athletic ability, or a complete lack of experience.
Still, if even 1 of these prospects ends up maintaining an NFL career, the class will be viewed favorably. And there are at least 5-6 who will get a look from the NFL.
