Jack Bech

Bech did well to land inside the second round, 58th overall, with one of the most WR-needy teams in the league. Jakobi Meyers is the Raiders' only proven starting-caliber player at the position, making star tight end Brock Bowers an obvious favorite to lead the team in targets. There presumably will be fewer targets to go around relative to last year -- when Vegas attempted the fourth most passes and third fewest rushes -- after the team brought in run-first offensive coordinator Chip Kelly and gave him RB Ashton Jeanty with the sixth overall pick. Still, it's a great situation for Bech to quickly become the No. 2 or 3 wide receiver, following a late-blooming college career in which more than half his yardage and TDs occurred in 2024 for TCU. Bech did put up 43-489-3 for LSU back in 2021, but then had only 346 receiving yards in 20 games in 2022-23. He was one of the stars of the Senior Bowl this winter and checked in at 6-foot-1, 214 pound at the 2025 Combine, where he skipped the 40-yard dash and had mediocre numbers in the other drills. In the NFL, Bech will need to win with size, strength and savvy rather than speed, perhaps making him somewhat similar to new teammate Myers. Read Past Outlooks
