Should I Start Jack Bech?

Sunday, June 7, 11:29 AM

A second-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jack Bech failed to carve out a consistent role in his team's offense as a rookie. Across 16 games (five starts), the 23-year-old hauled in 20 receptions for 224 yards on 29 targets. While Bech's production was unquestionably underwhelming, he was done no favors by the putrid offensive environment around him in Las Vegas. Entering 2026, the Raiders offense should be better with a new play-caller in Klint Kubiak and new quarterbacks in veteran Kirk Cousins and 2026 first overall pick Fernando Mendoza. Additionally, Bech should still have an opportunity to emerge within a Las Vegas wide receiver room that added veterans Jalen Nailor and Dareke Young in free agency but remains without a true WR1. In dynasty formats, managers may want to take advantage of the buy-low window on Bech ahead of 2026.
