LAKE FOREST, Ill. — General manager Ryan Poles wasn't quite ready to announce the Chicago Bears will take Caleb Williams with the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft. He says everyone will have to "tune in on Thursday to watch." Barring a massive surprise, the Bears will kick off the draft by grabbing the 2022 Heisman Trophy winner and setting themselves on a course they hope takes them to the top of the NFL. They also have the ninth overall pick as well as a third-rounder and a fourth-rounder. Chicago has been the likely landing spot for Williams since he announced in an Instagram post in January that he was leaving USC and turning pro.
