The quarterback transition underway for the Chicago Bears this offseason marks a departure from past changes within the team.

From transitioning between Kyle Orton and Jay Cutler, then Jay Cutler to Mitch Trubisky, and finally Mitch Trubisky to Justin Fields, each switch signaled an anticipated upgrade at the quarterback position. These shifts elicited excitement not only from fans but also from players in the Bears' locker room.

However, the move from Justin Fields to Caleb Williams diverges from previous transitions. Many players had invested in Fields' development and viewed him as the quarterback to propel the team from rebuilding to playoff contention.

This past week marked an important milestone for Williams as he assumes the role of the Bears' franchise quarterback. Williams had his pre-draft visit at Halas Hall, which included spending time with wide receiver DJ Moore.

During his visit, Williams dined separately from other draft prospects, engaging not only with team management but also with veteran players. The presence of Moore, a top receiver brought to Chicago partly to aid in evaluating Fields, underscores the pivotal role he'll play in Williams' integration into the team.

Williams has impressed throughout the Bears' evaluation process of this year's quarterback draft class. The ultimate test will come on draft night when the Bears officially select Williams with the first overall pick, cementing his position as the cornerstone of the team's offense for seasons to come.
