Packers Double Dip at WR with Savion Williams

By Shane Hallam | Updated on Sat, Apr 26 2025 2:37 AM UTC

The Packers selected TCU WR Savion Williams with the 87th pick of Round 3 in the 2025 NFL Draft. Williams is a bet on size and speed. This past season, TCU prioritized getting the ball in his hands quickly, leading to an average target depth of only 6.6 yards. He struggled with focus drops for his career but excelled with a 75% contested catch rate. Williams played QB in high school. Across five seasons at TCU, though, he primarily lined up at WR. He took on a larger rushing role late in the 2024 season. The 6’5, 212-pounder never posted true breakout numbers. His most productive campaign came this past fall (60-611-6) alongside fellow WR prospect Jack Bech (62-1,034-9). He also ranked 31st among Combine WRs in 2024 Target Share at 18%, and 37th among those WRs in PFF Receiving Grade with a 70.2. He is currently 23.3 years old. He ranked 13th among WRs in our Draft Sharks predraft Rookie Model scoring a 6.79. Our Comp for him in our Rookie Guide is Cordarrelle Patterson.

2025 Fantasy Football Impact

Savion Williams unique skillset offers a gadget player for the Packers who can run the ball or play deep

He is unlikely to make an immediate fantasy impact, especially with first-round WR Matthew Golden there.

Dynasty Impact

Savion Williams hasn't shown that he can be a complete WR, so he likely will sit down the depth chart early.

Unless he can find consistent snaps, he should be a late-round rookie pick only.
