Chicago Bears draft USC's Caleb Williams No. 1 in NFL Draft
DETROIT -- The Chicago Bears made it official and drafted USC's Caleb Williams first overall on Thursday night in the opening round of the NFL Draft, a move that many hope will finally deliver the team's quarterback of the future.It's a decision that has been widely seen as a virtual lock, especially after the Bears traded away Justin Fields to the Pittsburgh Steelers for a sixth-round pick after three frustrating years in Chicago.
Several mock drafts predicted the Bears would pick Washington wide receiver Rome Odunze, or possibly a player to bolster the defensive line. Trading the pick is also an option, as the Bears only own four draft picks.After the first round, the Bears won't be picking again until the third round at pick No. 75 and then pick No. 122 in the fourth round.
