USC Trojans quarterback Caleb Williams has given his honest take of (likely) being selected first overall by the Chicago Bears in next month’s NFL Draft.
For several months now, the 2022 Heisman Trophy has been considered a virtual lock to be selected first overall this year. With Chicago trading away starter Justin Fields to the Pittsburgh Steelers over the weekend, it all but assures that Williams will be a Bear come Apr. 25.
During an appearance on FS1’s “The Herd with Colin Cowherd“, the 22-year-old Williams expressed tremendous excitement about joining the Bears:
“I think it’s going to another big city. I’ve heard that they love football, so if that’s the place, I’m excited for that.The fans love football. One of the biggest things that I care about is a place that cares. If that was the place, I’d be excited.”
The Bears haven’t had a true superstar quarterback since Hall of Famer Sid Luckman, who played for the franchise from 1939 to 1950. And with all due respect to Jim McMahon, that legendary 1985 Bears Super Bowl 20 championship team was led by its star-studded defense.

Mitch Trubisky (the No. 2 pick of 2017) wasn’t the answer. The Bears didn’t see enough from Fields to continue building around him. So barring any massive surprises, Caleb Williams will be the next highly-touted QB prospect looking to give Chicago its first All-Pro-level signal-caller in more than seven decades.
Caleb Williams Could Be The Final Piece For The Bears
At this point, it’s not a stretch to say that Caleb Williams is all the Bears are needing at this point to emerge as a contender.
Chicago is not lacking in game-changing players on either side of the ball. D.J. Moore, Khalil Herbert, Cole Kmet and newcomers Keenan Allen and D’Andre Swift round out a dynamic set of playmakers on offense.
The defense improved considerably in year two under Matt Eberflus, and a full season of Montez Sweat plus the arrival of Kevin Byard should help this unit reach another level in 2024.
Add it all up, and the Bears are simply one Caleb Williams away from rounding into a championship-caliber team. That is, of course, if Caleb Williams comes exactly as advertised.

Ohio State WR Marvin Harrison Jr. Drops Major Hint About Which NFL Team He Wants Drafting Him With Interesting Social Media Activity

Ohio State Buckeyes star wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. just dropped a major hint on which team he wants to land with in next month’s NFL Draft.
The son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Marvin Harrison, Harrison Jr. is widely expected to be the first wide receiver taken in the 2024 NFL Draft. It’s widely assumed that quarterbacks Caleb Williams (USC), Jayden Daniels (LSU) and Drake Maye (North Carolina) will be the first three draft picks.
Arizona has the No. 4 selection in this month’s draft, and you’ve probably seen a million mock drafts with the Cardinals taking Marvin Harrison Jr. fourth overall. But as picked up by Dov Kleiman on X/Twitter, Harrison Jr.’s recent social media activity suggests that the second-generational wideout would like to land with the Los Angeles Chargers at No. 5 overall:

Both the Chargers and Cardinals have a pressing need for wide receiver help. Los Angeles traded six-time Pro Bowler Keenan Allen to the Chicago Bears last week and released veteran star Mike Williams (signed with the New York Jets) in a cap-saving move.
The Cardinals also lost their No. 1 WR of 2023, Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown, to the Kansas City Chiefs in free agency. So it’d be a giant surprise if they didn’t use the No. 4 pick on a wide receiver, especially Marvin Harrison Jr. is available there.

Marvin Harrison Jr. & Justin Herbert Would Be A Dynamic Tandem
There’s a high chance that the Chargers would have to trade up if they were to snag Marvin Harrison Jr. over the Cardinals. But if they can somehow make it happen, a Harrison Jr.-Justin Herbert combo would be downright explosive.
Whether it comes via trade or free agency, the Chargers have to rebuild the receiving room if Herbert is to bounce back under Jim Harbaugh. And getting a generational WR talent like Harrison Jr. would go a long way in helping the Bolts regain their top form on offense.
