LSU's pro day, featuring standouts Malik Nabers and Jayden Daniels, drew attention on Wednesday. Notably absent from Daniels' post-pro day team meetings were the Bears. Despite his Heisman Trophy credentials and projected top-three draft status, the Bears' absence speaks volumes.
Their thorough evaluation of Williams is evident. From film study to face-to-face interactions at the NFL Scouting Combine and beyond, the Bears have left no stone unturned. Ryan Poles revealed on "The Pat McAfee Show" that they've extensively vetted Williams, leaving only a final visit to Halas Hall and medical assessments before drafting him first overall.
While Daniels boasts impressive stats and potential, the Bears' focused pursuit of Williams is telling. As North Carolina's Drake Maye takes the spotlight at his pro day, the Bears' attendance�or lack thereof�will further illuminate their intentions.
In summary, all signs point to Caleb Williams donning a Chicago Bears jersey come draft day.
