SCOUTING REPORT
Caleb Williams is hailed as a generational talent, showcasing a Mahomes-like ability to extend plays combined with elite arm talent. His tape is undeniable, and the ceiling is beyond measure. The only on-field knock on Caleb is that he played on a poorly coached team without a defensive identity. In 2023, Caleb Williams opted to play hero ball more often to overcome USC's bad defense, a trend he will need to break once he is in the NFL. Bad habits die hard in the NFL, so he will need to learn to take what is given more often.
Primary scout:
Brandon Lundberg
PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Caleb Williams is a dynamic dual-threat quarterback, capable of making big plays both in the pocket and on the move. He possesses excellent arm strength, allowing him to make deep throws with ease, and his mobility enables him to extend plays and evade pressure. Williams is best suited for a modern spread offense that capitalizes on his ability to make plays out of structure, much like Patrick Mahomes in the NFL.
