NFL Draft 2026 Scouting Report for Georgia WR Dillon Bell

Dillon Bell is a sturdy, versatile matchup-wide receiver prospect. His game is predicated on making plays in space. His limited receiving production will place more onus on his ability to make his mark on special teams.

Bell enrolled at Georgia as a former 3-star recruit in the 2022 class. He has played in 56 games in college. Bell never produced at a high-level during his four years with the Bulldogs. Primarily used as a versatile threat, but there's developmental receiving ability to work with.

Dame Parson is the lead host of the Locked On NFL Draft podcast. He also serves as co-host of the Scouting Room NFL Podcast alongside Daniel Harms.
