Adam Schefter reveals his prediction for the team that he believes will select Caleb Williams in the draft.

During an appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show," Schefter discussed the growing consensus within the NFL that the Chicago Bears are likely to select former USC star quarterback Caleb Williams as the No. 1 overall pick in the upcoming draft. While there may be other teams interested in trading up for Williams, Schefter suggested that the Bears are leaning towards keeping the top pick and trading Justin Fields.

Schefter acknowledged some uncertainties surrounding this decision, including whether the Bears are truly willing to pass on Caleb Williams, which appears to be the prevailing belief across the league. He also raised the question of whether the Bears have enough confidence in quarterbacks like Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels, or even Justin Fields.

However, Schefter noted that the general sentiment in the league is leaning towards the Bears ultimately trading Justin Fields. While the final decision remains uncertain, this seems to be the prevailing sentiment among NFL insiders.

The Bears have the option to trade down a spot or two from the No. 1 pick, draft a quarterback, and still trade Justin Fields. However, Schefter expressed doubts that the Bears are enamored with Drake Maye or Jayden Daniels enough to pursue such a strategy.

Notably, the Bears traded the top overall pick to the Carolina Panthers last year and could potentially receive an even more substantial return if they decide to move down in the draft again. However, if the Bears firmly believe that Caleb Williams is a franchise quarterback and are less enthusiastic about Justin Fields, retaining the No. 1 pick may be the right course of action.

While Williams may have hinted at his preferences over the weekend, the final decision lies with the NFL draft, where he is expected to be the first player selected. The only remaining question is which team will hold the pick when draft day arrives.
