DSVII Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 1 hour ago, runningback33 said: Report: USC's Williams declares for NFL Draft https://www.tsn.ca/nfl/source-usc-s-caleb-williams-potential-top-pick-enters-nfl-draft-19.71662 USC quarterback Caleb Williams will be entering the 2024 NFL draft, he announced on social media Monday. The decision comes on the final day that underclassmen are allowed to declare. Williams' decision formalizes his status as the favorite to be the No. 1 pick in the draft. His formal entry now highlights the Chicago Bears' offseason conundrum of keeping Justin Fields or trading him to (presumably) build around Williams. Williams' decision is not a huge surprise. It had been clear since USC's disappointing 2023 season ended that he'd wait until the final day he could make a decision, similar to how C.J. Stroud waited until the final day to decide last year. The debate surrounding Williams in scouting circles isn't whether he's the No. 1 pick in the draft, but rather whether he is a once-a-decade type prospect or a generational one. Williams' use of varied arm angles, his improvisational wizardry and his ability to use his legs combine for an intriguing package. Williams won the Heisman Trophy at USC in 2022 and put together another strong season in 2023, even as USC's record dipped from an 11-3 playoff contender to an 8-5 Pac-12 also-ran. Williams completed 68.6 passes for 3,633 yards in 12 games in 2023, compared to 66.6-percent for 4,537 yards in 14 games the previous year. While Williams didn't replicate his Heisman magic and USC's team performance dipped -- much because of an apathetic defense -- his maintained consistent performance, and his status as the top player and quarterback in this class is still secure. ESPN polled a half-dozen scouts and executives Monday, and none could see a scenario other than Williams going No. 1. "I'd be shocked if he wasn't," one veteran scout said. Another added: "He's the best player at the most important position." Williams finishes his career, including his freshman year at Oklahoma when he won the starting job from Spencer Rattler, with a total of 93 touchdown passes, 14 interceptions and 10,082 yards in three seasons. He went 23-10 in his career as a starter and appeared in 37 total games, per ESPN Stats & Information. Williams also accounted for 21 rushing touchdowns in his two seasons at USC. Perhaps no statistic sums up his pure talent and potential more than him executing 10 career games of five or more touchdowns responsible for. Per ESPN Stats & Information, only Patrick Mahomes had more in the College Football Playoff era. Williams and former North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye entered the season as the projected No. 1 and No. 2 picks in the draft. Both of their teams had uneven seasons, but neither quarterback did anything to change that status. LSU's Jayden Daniels thrust himself into the fringes of that conversation with a resplendent Heisman Trophy season, as no quarterback did more to increase his stock than Daniels in 2023. One year after Alabama's Bryce Young and Stroud went No. 1 and No. 2, the wholesale expectation is for quarterbacks to fly off in the top two spots again. If two quarterbacks go No. 1 and No. 2, it would mark the tenth time in NFL history that quarterbacks have gone at that position. Williams gives the 2024 draft its definitive headliner, as the Bears' decision on the pick will loom over the league in the upcoming months. Did Chicago promise they'd not take him? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RupertKBD Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 This would be the point where I would normally rake my friend @Shift-4 over the coals for his foolish prediction of a Steelers victory and his weak attempt at trolling myself and @Sabrefan1 earlier today.... .....but my parents raised me to always take the high road, so I'm not going to do that.... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and the Bills are doing that weird mid-game malaise thing that they've been doing during this winning streak. Can't afford to do that against the Chiefs.

(MLK day isn't a holiday up here.....yet) I kept checking out the live updates as the afternoon went on, so I had an idea what was going on. I still don't know what happened on that late FG try, though. How TF did Bass miss that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the destroyer of worlds Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 So next Saturday: Texans at Ravens KC at Bills. Sunday: Packers at 49rs Looking like Bucs will win. They will face the Lions in Detroit. Lions fans spoiled after such a long wait for a playoff win. My picks are Ravens, Bill's, 49rs and Lions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 The Eagles probably wouldn't beat Carolina either. Lots of changes coming, but I think they need o-coordinator changes the most. AJ Brown was missed as well. Gotta think a few guys retire as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
