The Chicago Bears once again find themselves with the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft, and all eyes in the pro football world are on them as they weigh what to do with it: select a new franchise quarterback to replace Justin Fields or trade it away for multiple assets to build around him.
USC’s Caleb Williams is the consensus prize of this year’s draft, but Fields progressed noticeably last season, leaving Bears general manager Ryan Poles with a massive decision. Nevertheless, CBS Sports’s Boomer Esiason doesn’t think there’s anything hard about the impending decision.
“They’re taking this kid [Williams] right here, and if they don’t take this kid, then Ryan Poles should be fired,” Esiason said Tuesday on the Boomer and Gio show on WFAN-AM and CBS Sports Network.
