2025 Dynasty Rookie Post-Draft Update: Jack Bech

The NFL Draft is behind us, rookie drafts are taking place, and as dynasty managers we are looking ahead to the upcoming season. In our Dynasty Rookie Post-Draft Update series, we break down all the incoming fantasy-relevant rookies, looking at their profiles and where they fit. The basis of the rookie profile involves the usage of STORM analysis, focusing on five key components: Situation, Talent, Opportunity, Risk, and Market.

Situation

Name: Jack Bech

Position: Wide receiver

Pro Team: Las Vegas Raiders

College Team: TCU

Draft Status: Round 2, Pick 58

A player every talent evaluator appeared to have affection for, Bech lands with the Raiders in the latter half of round two. Las Vegas has been revamping its offense all off-season and adds Bech to a receiver room that desperately needed more talent.

The Raiders are the rare team that features a tight end as their best passing game threat. Brock Bowers is obviously fantastic, and he carried over an essentially bulletproof prospect profile into his rookie season to set records. Beyond him, however, the Raiders have the perpetually underrated Jakobi Meyers, niche weapon Tre Tucker, and fellow rookie Dont’e Thornton.

Bech could become a starter as a rookie, even in the all-important two-receiver sets. He has a pro-ready game, which should prove a nice fit with new quarterback Geno Smith. Six months ago, we would have been petrified by a receiver landing with the Raiders. Now, we are excited to see how they fit with this organization hitting the reset button.

Talent

What stands out most about Bech is his competitiveness on each snap. Whether working over the middle, on the perimeter, or as a run-blocker, Bech is always working hard to make something happen.

Bech’s size (6’1” and 214 pounds) gives him inside and outside versatility. Few receivers climb the ladder like him to make the play; his ball skills border on special and ease any concerns about an ability to separate consistently. He is not going to be one of the top athletes on the field, which could limit him to a more tertiary role; however, his well-rounded skillset and high football character make him a good bet to be a long-term starter.

Opportunity

Few teams could throw out the welcome mat at receiver like the Raiders do. Meyers is a solid veteran, though he is heading into his age-29 season and becomes a free agent as of March 2026. Bech could start from day and has an outside shot of being the team’s second passing game option behind Bowers as early as 2026. Long term, I would imagine the Raiders eye a true WR1, but immediate returns from Bech could be strong.

Risk

Risk analysts would have a fantastic debate discussing Bech. He is a low-yield bond; the returns may not be electric, but they should be steady and without many surprises. The question with the TCU product remains his upside, as the path to being a fantasy difference-maker looks full of obstacles.

Market

Per DLF’s May 2025 Superflex Rookie Dynasty ADP.

Bech is your classic late second-round rookie pick. He has ample opportunity ahead of him and we trust the talent well enough. After you move past the top 15 or so, it becomes a pick your flavor type of rookie draft.

Per DLF’s May 2025 Superflex Dynasty ADP.

This range of startups is a grab bag of veterans with a ticking clock along with young players who have yet to perform consistently. It is a fair slot, as you are adding Bech early as a bench piece whose development you monitor closely.

Per DLF’s Trade Analyzer.

Bech does not have a lot of juice on the trade market just yet, though if you are in the market for a veteran running back, he may be a good chip to lead with. Backs like James Conner or Aaron Jones are likely going to see their value evaporate after the 2025 season, though they could be strong adds for a title contender as runners who always find themselves in the RB2 ranks. This would be the area I would target were I looking to move Bech.

If you are not in a win-now mode, the best move with Bech may be to see what he can do with Pete Carroll’s squad. He has a pro-ready game and if he pops early, his value could rise significantly. You are unlikely to find many one-for-one trades that provide more of a boost to your roster than Bech does. He is ready to go as a starter from day one and is a strong add to your dynasty receiver room.
