Packers land Savion Williams in 3rd round

The Green Bay Packers selected TCU wide receiver Savion Williams in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 87th overall.

Green Bay selected a second wideout after taking Matthew Golden with its first-round selection (No. 23 overall). Williams racked up 933 scrimmage yards and 12 total touchdowns in 2024.

Williams brings versatility to a deep Green Bay receiving group that includes Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, and Christian Watson.

Pre-draft profile

Williams, first and foremost, is an exceptional athlete. There simply aren't many people who move the way he does at his size. Development is required as a route-runner, and he'll have to improve when it comes to both tracking the ball downfield and avoiding costly drops. But the upside is incredible. Williams can dominate in the contested-catch game, showing impressive body control and the ability to attack the ball at its highest point. He might have been further along as a receiver were he not used so much as a wildcat QB/gadget player, but it's tough to blame TCU considering the production. The playmaking ability we saw there should translate well in terms of physicality, elusiveness, and creativity after the catch. Williams can be a contributor with manufactured touches right away. There's lots of potential if his new coaching staff can help develop the finer points of his game.
