袁谭（？－205年），字显思，汝南汝阳人。东汉末军阀袁绍的长子，为人性刚好杀。

袁绍打败公孙瓒后令袁谭出守青州为都督，未为刺史，后曹操封其为青州刺史。建安元年（196年），北拒田楷，东攻孔融，领土大增，百姓欣喜，但后因用人不当、到处掳掠、赏罚不公而大失民心。建安四年（199年），欲迎接袁术，但为刘备所阻挠。建安五年（200年），刘备兵败，经袁谭引领袁绍。后袁绍在官渡之战兵败，袁谭和袁绍仅有八百骑渡河逃脱。

建安七年（202年）袁绍忧愤而死。袁绍以袁尚美貌及后妻刘氏所喜爱而欲立为继承人，但未正式表态。众人认为袁谭为长子应为继承人，但逢纪、审配一派与辛评、郭图、袁谭一派不和，逢纪等因为惧怕袁谭即位后加害，私下改袁绍遗命，立袁尚继位。袁谭不能继位，自称车骑将军，屯黎阳。

Yuan Tan (died 205), courtesy name Xiansi, was the eldest son of Yuan Shao, a warlord who occupied much of northern China in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. After Yuan Shao's death, Yuan Tan engaged his younger brother, Yuan Shang, in a power struggle over their father's territories. He sought help from his father's rival, Cao Cao, and defeated Yuan Shang with Cao's help. However, the alliance between Yuan Tan and Cao Cao was eventually broken and Yuan was defeated and killed by Cao.
