No. 1 Selection: Caleb Williams, QB, USC

Height: 6’1”

Weight: 214

40 time: 4.48

Hometown: Washington, DC

College Highlights:  Caleb Williams enters the draft as one of the most highly decorated talents in the draft. These awards are highlighted as the 2022 Heisman Football Trophy winner. 

Notes: Williams, has been regarded as the No. 1 draft prospect in this class by several talent evaluators. He has the ability to make plays with his scrambling abilities, and carries a 46:1 touchdown to interception ratio in the red zone since the start of the 2022 season, per Pro Football Focus. 

His downside will be how he will handle the pressures of being compared to the likes of Patrick Mahomes. Will he be able to adapt to surroundings that don’t fit his Gen Z mentality of having things custom made to his likings, while also balancing the potential of not fulfilling the loathly expectations that will be placed on him from day one.
