Bears To Meet With Caleb Williams Soon
10 months agoThe Chicago Bears are expected to meet with USC quarterback Caleb Williams after his pro day on March 20, but they initially wanted to talk to him after the NFL scouting combine, which would be incredibly early. In an ideal world, Chicago would be able to assess this year's QB class before deciding what to do with Justin Fields. But it's not practical for the Bears to wait until mid-August to trade Fields, when the spots available for veteran signal-callers across the NFL have filled up. The Bears also want to do right by Fields and trade him before the start of free agency next week, if possible, to maximize his value. It would be a pretty big surprise at this point if the Bears don't hold on to the No. 1 overall pick in the draft to select Williams as their franchise QB.
