All Matt Harmon insights about Jack Bech
PositiveProjectionJul 16, 2026
Bech lacks straight-line speed and cannot run vertical routes effectively, as shown in his prospect profile with limited vertical route capability despite strong route-running ability elsewhere.PositiveRoleJul 16, 2026
Bech shows real ability and good separation skills when he plays, but was confusingly underutilized last year despite playing out of position. The analyst suggests he could be activated with a low-volume production role similar to Cooper Kupp's usage with the Seahawks, leveraging his blocking ability and quick-win capability on third downs.PositiveRoleJul 16, 2026
Bech's ability to separate in the short and intermediate area is valuable, and a good offensive coach like Kubiak is better positioned to activate him in a hybrid move tight end/power slot role than what was seen last year.PositiveRoleJul 16, 2026
Bech can function as an F player (power slot/hybrid tight end) in two and three receiver sets, with flexibility to line up alongside Brock Bowers and other receivers. The analyst believes there is still upside for Bech in year two despite limited production in year one.PositiveRoleJul 16, 2026
Jack Besh can function as an F player in two and three receiver sets, serving more as a blocker while allowing Brock Bowers to operate as the true slot player.PositiveBreakoutJul 16, 2026
The analyst believes this coaching staff can get something out of Jack Besh and unlock his potential.PositiveValueJul 16, 2026
Rather than spending a third or fourth round pick on a new receiver, the Raiders should get the right role and development for Jack Besh, the second-round pick they drafted last year.PositiveRoleJul 16, 2026
Jack Besh can serve as a reliable possession target early in his career, with the potential to develop further as the Raiders' second-round pick from last year.PositiveBreakoutJul 16, 2026
Bech's year-one production was disappointing, but his small sample size and underlying metrics suggest there's a clear path to activation through proper deployment, similar to how the Seahawks used Cooper Kupp.PositiveProjectionJul 16, 2026
Despite poor rookie year deployment, Bech's underlying separation ability and success rates (68.7% vs man coverage, 80% vs zone) suggest he's 'scratching the surface' of being a really good player if given proper role catering.NegativeUsageJul 16, 2026
Bech was used on slot snaps only 28% of the time and had 15.5% route participation on nine routes, which is heavy usage for a route he struggles with (36% success rate), suggesting poor offensive scheme fit.PositiveRoleJul 16, 2026
Bech was played out of position as an outside X receiver in his rookie year despite lacking the straight-line speed for that role; he should be deployed as a big slot/Z-type receiver to maximize his skill set.PositiveBreakoutJul 16, 2026
The analyst liked Besh as a prospect and saw the Raiders offense as presenting opportunity, with mid-season rookie report data showing he looked like he belonged on the field despite limited snaps.PositiveProjectionJul 16, 2026
Besh's comparable seasons via the player comparison tool are Rashod Bateman's rookie year, Cedric Tillman's 2024 season, and Kenny Golladay's 2018 season—all X receiver profiles.NegativeRoleJul 16, 2026
Besh was forced to play out of position as an X receiver (76% snaps on the line of scrimmage, only 28% in the slot) despite the analyst believing he was not a prospect suited for that role in the NFL.NegativeDepth ChartJul 16, 2026
Besh barely played as a rookie despite showing ability when on the field, with the analyst believing particular members of the Raiders coaching staff simply didn't want him as a draft pick.PositiveRoleJul 16, 2026
Besh showed strong route-running ability on short and intermediate routes with 80%+ success rates on digs, curls, comebacks, and slants, demonstrating real ability to get open despite limited playing time.PositiveUsageJul 16, 2026
The Jack Bech film was much better than the production and the lack of snaps would indicate. If a new Raiders coaching staff can find the right role for him, there's a useful player in there waiting for them. New video on the channel 👇PositiveUsageJul 16, 2026
