He checks in at 6-5\/225. PFF projects him as the 6th best receiver in the 2025 draft. A three-year starter played a lot in the slot and projects as a second-day guy.<\/p>\n<p>A former quarterback with great speed in the open field, Williams has a high drop rate and is not a great route runner. His blocking needs improvement.<\/p>\n<p>The last time the Rams took two receivers in the same draft from the same school was when they took Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey out of West Virginia in 2013.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Tangent-Dreams-School-Football-Novel\/dp\/0692588175\/ref=sr_1_3?crid=28G988H4WKHR0&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.M3evvO726zMGCCXlj0FX5hlrlgavlAZ6U0zoU_grEGC9BnY8HUDO73WUf9K8LiA4ontY_eJMO3XJwvOrzv9EaO4Fv4UdfuumYQeN2bGWPt2gwENTBxjqJssGI0k-QSDqo4_UYA9KdiaQBbg7DmawsTwy-aT84Agtv2d5dKdgn7x-k4m3Adg_XxNv38H_s_ZH_etxUbU0S_MEpdhxT5z1Htpri4QwhA_CywY7pl__EWc.dgLdPSR-eT_Bxw_0rr5nsjbZn2YCktg9rbI0qG-cY-I&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;keywords=joe+torosian&amp;qid=1737583132&amp;sprefix=Joe+Torosian%2Caps%2C196&amp;sr=8-3\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-54586\" src=\"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/tangentdreamsBlues_jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"326\" height=\"198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/tangentdreamsBlues_jpg.jpg 588w, https:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/tangentdreamsBlues_jpg-70x43.jpg 70w, https:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/tangentdreamsBlues_jpg-400x243.jpg 400w, https:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/tangentdreamsBlues_jpg-150x91.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 326px) 100vw, 326px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nJoe T.&#8217;s High School football novel is available through Amazon.com&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>That didn&#8217;t work out great\u2026and Savion Williams may be long gone by the time the Rams pick on the second day\u2026But Bech is worth keeping an eye on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tim Byrnes Getting ready for the draft.
