Draft Profile: Bio
Savion Williams, a wide receiver from TCU, has steadily improved his production over his college career. Hailing from Marshall, Texas, Williams was a four-star recruit who initially played quarterback in high school, leading his team to a district championship. At TCU, he transitioned to wide receiver and gradually increased his impact each season, while also earning recognition for his exceptional athleticism.

Williams' collegiate journey began with limited action in 2020 and 2021, but he broke out in 2022, starting all 15 games and quadrupling his career reception total. His senior year in 2023 was his most productive, leading TCU with 573 receiving yards on 41 receptions and scoring four touchdowns. Williams also showcased versatility, adding 62 rushing yards on 11 carries.

Throughout his TCU career, Williams earned recognition for his performances, including a career-high 11 receptions for 164 yards against Texas in 2023. His efforts culminated in an Honorable-Mention All-Big 12 selection in his final season. Off the field, Williams garnered attention for his freakish athleticism, earning a spot on Bruce Feldman's 2023 Freak's List at #56, highlighting his exceptional physical tools and versatility.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Super athletic - Made Bruce Feldman's 2023 Freak's List at #56. He Wrote: "Williams, though, jumps well too, having hit 10-6 on the broad jump and posted a 40-inch vertical. In 2022, Williams made 29 receptions for 392 yards and four touchdowns. The former high school quarterback has incredible arm strength. He can throw it farther than all the TCU QBs. “He threw it about 20 yards further — it was like every bit of 80 yards,”"
  • Possesses an excellent size-speed combination, with a towering frame and straight-line speed that creates mismatches against most defensive backs
  • Displays above-average body control and coordination for his size, allowing him to make adjustments on deep balls and win in contested catch situations
  • Shows promise as a vertical threat, with the ability to stack defenders and track the ball downfield effectively
  • Demonstrates reliable hands, particularly on intermediate routes, securing catches away from his body with consistency
  • Exhibits potential as a red zone target, using his height and leaping ability to high-point throws and create separation in tight spaces
  • Versatile athlete with a quarterback background, offering potential for gadget plays and expanding his role in creative offensive schemes
  • Showcases improvement in production each season, indicating a positive development curve and potential for further growth at the next level
  • Possesses the frame and athleticism to develop into a solid blocker on the perimeter with proper coaching and technique refinement
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Route tree is currently limited, primarily excelling on vertical and intermediate routes while needing development in short and breaking patterns
  • Lacks experience against press coverage, which may lead to early struggles against physical NFL cornerbacks at the line of scrimmage
  • Despite impressive athletic testing, on-field play speed doesn't consistently match his timed speed, suggesting room for improvement in functional football movements
  • Blocking technique and consistency need significant improvement to become a reliable asset in the run game at the next level
  • Production, while improving year-over-year, hasn't reached the elite level typically expected from a receiver with his physical tools
Scouting Report: Summary
Williams enters the NFL draft as a developmental prospect with intriguing physical tools but a need for refinement in several areas. His combination of size and straight-line speed presents an appealing package for teams looking for a potential X-receiver. However, his current skill set suggests he's more of a project than an immediate impact player.

On tape, Williams flashes the ability to be a threat in the vertical passing game and shows promise in contested catch situations. His steady improvement throughout his college career is encouraging, but his overall production and current technical skills don't quite match his athletic potential. Teams will need to weigh his upside against his present limitations in route diversity and consistency.

While not projected as a day-one starter, Williams has the physical attributes to develop into a valuable outside receiver with time and coaching. His draft position will likely reflect the balance between his raw potential and his current level of polish. Teams with strong receiver development programs and offenses that emphasize downfield passing may view Williams as an attractive mid-to-late-round selection with upside to outperform his draft slot.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
