Today, Kurt breaks down Caleb Williams All-22! Caleb is often viewed as the BEST QB prospect in recent years, is that true? Kurt taps in and breaks it all down.
I think you just given the best example of why Caleb Williams should have a "Buyer Beware" tag attached to him. He tries to make every single play a splash play. He doesnt play within the system. He doesnt make decisions quickly. Beyond his raw physical abilities its hard for me to see why he'd be the 1st pick.
i am biblically stoned right now and your voice is incredibly relaxing for some reason, thanks for that. also, i subscribed. this was a very good break down. i think. im high. god bless
The haphazard foot work. I’ve been saying it and it’s going to affect his ability to throw into tight windows in the short and medium game. It won’t matter though since he’ll have 2 top 10 receivers and TE’s. It’s all about the the team mechanics and not just the individual.
love the vids as always KB thank you for the amazing high level insight. Hope you and the lovely folks at pocket presence keep this up for as long as y'all enjoy it!
problem with that 3 pick game was... its the closest to what Caleb will see in the NFL.. D line prssure.. tight receiver coverage.. where "off schedule" play ability gets completely exploited in the NFL..
@@foreverfree3953 - you can't really compare. if you want QBs who beat "NFL-level defenses" in college, congrats, you've drafted Mac Jones, Stetson Bennett, and T-Law. the reality is that ND was simply a much better constructed team than USC in 2023. unless you think Caleb's o-line in the NFL is going to be as porous as USC's, or think that the quality of receivers he'll have in Chicago is lower than at USC (Brendan Rice was our best WR, which is... it's fine)... unless you think that, the idea that ND is "the closest to what Caleb will see in the league" is just not a fair comp
@@jaarc1437 not what you want but, again, not very relevant. Mahomes lost a LOT at Texas Tech. Josh Allen hardly even faced a quality D. Lamar lost to every ranked opp at Louisville in his last season. Stafford got shut out by Bama and threw three picks vs Florida, which triggered the same “he can’t face NFL defense” claims
@@Sleezygemthat’s a fair opinion but Kurt is evaluating to an NFL level not college, Caleb is NFL ready but hasn’t had bad habits coached out of him that’s all he is saying here
@@Sleezygemcap i watched kurt warner…he said its hard to evaluate his tape because the play calling was bad n made no sense….sounds alot like fields….JD is him tho…kurt did say he has the best tape
Uncle Kurt with another fire breakdown. Keep succeeding my dude. Their is QBs in middle school watching this helping their knowledge and one day what you said could lead a kid to the NFL, you’re the man brother
Caleb’s pocket presence and movement was much better last year. Felt like he played a lot of hero ball this year, just holding onto the ball for too long. Nothing crazy and something that he can learn
Kurt is saying what I was thinking watching Caleb this year. He's got a couple minor issues that a good QB Coach can iron out. And honestly I want him to sit behind an established starter for a year at least.
@@randy2152 so did Mahomes. Except Mahomes had more issues, Mahomes was a disaster waiting to happen if drafted anywhere that wasn't stable. I understand your point but that's why I'm saying he needs to sit behind an established veteran. And with a stable organization. The Bears feels like a death sentence.
@@BuddhaMelffyQueenThe Bears have been owned by the Halas/McCaskey family since they moved to Chicago and were renamed to the Bears back in 1921, and you dare to call the franchise unstable. Lmao.
You have to understand though that a teams qb history isn't necessarily indicative of what they are now. The Bears are making moves any rookie qb should be able to succeed with. I would not mind him sitting in year one. But I think if he is a bust, it isn't because of the Bears, it would be his fault. @@BuddhaMelffyQueen
He’s got the tools to be great, he’s not the best QB prospect ever or “next Mahomes” he’s not better than Luck, Burrow, or Lawrence coming out imo. But he’s elite. I just think he’s better than the other QBs, buts he’s not one of these generational guys. Although I’m high on him but not as high as others I think the Bears would be foolish not to bring him in, he’d easily the best prospect they’ve ever brought in no doubt.
I agree he makes big plays when there doesn't need a big play he just needs to go through progressions and take what is there. Will see if he can fix it in the NFL.
Great breakdown, My biggest fear is that he wants or feels like he has to make a highlight play every down. The biggest throws. The biggest scrambles. I know nothing about the guy, and I don't know if this is scheme or him. But a general theme I saw watching USC last year was we're going big, relying on his legs to extend the play, and he either bombs it, scrambles, or checks down to his RB if those two options are gone.
Hey Kurt! Love your content on twitter and RUclips. Listen to the podcast too. How many games do you watch of these QBs before you set the rankings you make?
How would we feel about tannehill as a bridge? Just if we bulk the line good receivers heavy play action would be successful and I think would suit Williams games whilst giving us a chance to play well
Caleb has very happy feet. His out of structure backyard football is impressive, but he struggles more playing in structure and getting the ball out quick. I’m really curious how his game will translate to the NFL.
False. Watch the Pac-12 championship from the previous season. He got injured, then came back in but couldn't run. So he had to play within the offense, & looked REALLY good in structure.
I think he will be just fine because DJ Moore and Allen will be in the right spot at the right time which will help with throwing in time and with anticipation
As a straight male I gotta say you have some nice eyes and I think you know it and have heard it before, why else would you show yourself so much? 😂 From a fellow QB you do nice breakdowns, I also watched a few of your Madden videos before seeing you break down these college QBs. How hard does it make it (for you) to evaluate college QBs just because of the hash marks being so much further apart? ✌️✝️
Mahomes struggled with dropping to far in the pocket for the first couple years as a starter in the league. Caleb needs good coaching and he'll be fine
I was very undecided on Caleb until I saw how good he was at Oklahoma. I don’t think USC was good for him. Way too much scrambling but the talent is there
Williams isn’t looking for 5 yard underneath passes. He’s looking for 80 yard bombs. Even tho college football is at its peak now, and better now more than ever… u still can’t break it down like it’s nfl.
I don't think he'll be perfect coming out like you said he's gotta clean up the footwork a bit and in his other games I've noticed him not taking the easy throws in favor of the big plays. I think he's going to Chicago so he'll have better weapons than he had at USC so he has a little more room for error there.
You keep saying he doesn't have to be a savior, the guy he is replacing threw for 2500 yards 16 TD and 9 INTs in his prove it year. Next we drafted a tackle top 10 last year, we might do it again this year, Tevin is ther we paid for Davis and we probaby get Van Pran. We will get a WR from trading JF and the new QB will have a great O Line, DJ and Leggetee or Devontez, and Kmet who we paid. Caleb is going to be walking into a great situation. I am sick of people acting like we are not trending in the right direction.
Im almost certain williams isnt the #1 pick. Tbh if the bears are smart they trade the #1 for capital and draft MHJ. Williams has a issue with his reads. He misses a lot of open recievers on the back half of his reads. And causes him to have to do those scramble drill playmaker plays. Which is good. But the reason hes having to do that. Is very bad
18:10 you were completely incorrect about this analysis. You thought it was going to be a bad play and overreacted because you felt like hating. Then contradicted your own criticism. Caleb made the best possible play under those circumstances.
If he is such an impressive passer, show those games Kurt. Cause having watched him this year and last, I don't see where anyone at any point can say he is special. Maybe more of a liability with his poor decision making. Hoping he can learn is not worth the risk considering the rest of what he is lacking.
I love Kurt's knowledge and how he explains what's going on. Makes it easy to follow and understand
I think you just given the best example of why Caleb Williams should have a "Buyer Beware" tag attached to him. He tries to make every single play a splash play. He doesnt play within the system. He doesnt make decisions quickly. Beyond his raw physical abilities its hard for me to see why he'd be the 1st pick.

great punctuation for being biblically stoned lol
I, too, am biblically stoned watching draft stuff. I find this relaxing as well.
We're all just ripped watching Caleb's film eh boys?
@@EspiyGaming Whodathunk football draft stuff went so well with reefers 🤌🏻 *Zach Galifinakis numbers gif*
Pause bro
The haphazard foot work. I’ve been saying it and it’s going to affect his ability to throw into tight windows in the short and medium game. It won’t matter though since he’ll have 2 top 10 receivers and TE’s. It’s all about the the team mechanics and not just the individual.
Precisely why Bears need to sign Kurt as starting QB while Caleb sits a year!
I hope you continue this as a series! Awesome breakdown!
Great breakdown thank you - I have been watching all your QB breakdowns and its great how you are so detailed and yet concise with your analysis. 👍
You just got a new fan!!! I appreciate quality and effort. Keep doing what you're doing.
Thank you dude 🫡
love the vids as always KB thank you for the amazing high level insight. Hope you and the lovely folks at pocket presence keep this up for as long as y'all enjoy it!
What’s crazy too is how 3 of his 5 int came from one game
problem with that 3 pick game was... its the closest to what Caleb will see in the NFL.. D line prssure.. tight receiver coverage.. where "off schedule" play ability gets completely exploited in the NFL..

@@foreverfree3953Coaching and XS and Os lost that game
@@feastmode7931fact is he was helpless vs a top ten team. Not what you want from the first qb taken, regardless of excuses

we getting out of the offseason with this one
New sub here. HS football coach who's first love was scouting. Combine hooked me when I was in middle school
Finally someone who doesnt get blinded by the hype. An honest review
One game bud
Watch former nfl qbs/ kurt warner, Carson Palmer, Kyle Allen, break down his game. They say he’s the best they’ve evaluated since Andrew luck

More on the way

Love this as someone thay doesnt understand the game that deeply. It helps alot. Itd be nice to do this with some NFL film too. Cheers!
Amazing breakdown I needed to watch this. Now I'm a huge fan of Caleb.
Kurt is saying what I was thinking watching Caleb this year. He's got a couple minor issues that a good QB Coach can iron out. And honestly I want him to sit behind an established starter for a year at least.
You’ve gotta take into account he’s been playing like this his entire life, it’s built into him at this point.
You’re lucky if any of it is fixable.

Keep Crushing it bro
Gotta love that chop block by the RT at 29:26

Good stuff. This will be an interesting draft this year.
Great video. Where do you get your college all 22?
Awesome awesome breakdown, I learned a like from a QB perspective. You should pursue being a QB Coach 👍👍

We gotta get u to call some games yo breakdowns would b 🔥🔥
Need a Michael Penix breakdown
Imagine if a guy like him had gone to a real school where they actually play complementary football instead of following Lincoln Riley around.
One of the things you said, “throw the back shoulder”. That’s the thing, I can’t find a consistent back shoulder in this guys tape.
Hey Kurt! Love your content on twitter and RUclips. Listen to the podcast too. How many games do you watch of these QBs before you set the rankings you make?
Haven’t even fullllly made them yet tbh. Still fluid
How would we feel about tannehill as a bridge? Just if we bulk the line good receivers heavy play action would be successful and I think would suit Williams games whilst giving us a chance to play well
Sooooo.......what's it gonna take to get like 30 more of these vids, like 5 for each of the top 6 dudes?
😂😂😂 it would take months of film review and editing hours
Ryan Leaf said this the other day and got blasted for it. I agree with you and Leaf. Have said the same thing about Caleb.
hey kurt where do you get film like this? I want to do some of my own studying
Looking forward to the drake maye tape and Kurt’s QB ranking
I will watch anything that has Kurt Benkert 🎉
Hey have you had any issues with veritone copyright for pac 12?
You should have been promoted this channel!! Why am I just finding this????? 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Nice vid! Go pack!

False. Watch the Pac-12 championship from the previous season. He got injured, then came back in but couldn't run. So he had to play within the offense, & looked REALLY good in structure.
Thank you for telling all of us you didn’t watch any games
Does Caleb show enough "on schedule" progression decision making & anticipation talent?
whats the program he is using to watch the film?
I think he will be just fine because DJ Moore and Allen will be in the right spot at the right time which will help with throwing in time and with anticipation
how do you get the all 22 film
Breakdown for drake maye and JJ ?
you should do a video with marcus whitman (that franchise guy)
Here after the trade of JF..😢
Don't worry 😊 Bears getting Bo Nix bro 💯😉
He play just like justin did in Chicago, playing hero ball an not throwing into tight coverages, we'll be in the same situation 😂
As a straight male I gotta say you have some nice eyes and I think you know it and have heard it before, why else would you show yourself so much? 😂 From a fellow QB you do nice breakdowns, I also watched a few of your Madden videos before seeing you break down these college QBs. How hard does it make it (for you) to evaluate college QBs just because of the hash marks being so much further apart?
✌️✝️
U can't judge a quarterback by one game...if you picked his best games your judgment would be different...so...overall who's the best qb this year?
can u watch one of his bad games maybe against notre dame wanna see what you make of some of the lowlights.
That’s legit his only bad game y’all are desperately holding onto
Mahomes struggled with dropping to far in the pocket for the first couple years as a starter in the league. Caleb needs good coaching and he'll be fine
Being able to groom a QB makes and sounds nice. But it shortens contract basically.
I agree with his feet being jittery and hazardous. Go back and watch his 2022 film and his feet are way more relaxed
do michael penix
This game looks eerily similar to JF1
I was very undecided on Caleb until I saw how good he was at Oklahoma. I don’t think USC was good for him. Way too much scrambling but the talent is there
Williams isn’t looking for 5 yard underneath passes. He’s looking for 80 yard bombs. Even tho college football is at its peak now, and better now more than ever… u still can’t break it down like it’s nfl.
Breakdown Kedon Slovis
He holds on to the ball, stares his first receiver down, can’t make NFL type throws and has shaky mechanics at best.
#1 overall pick!!!
Some of these things that are working are misreads.
I don't think he'll be perfect coming out like you said he's gotta clean up the footwork a bit and in his other games I've noticed him not taking the easy throws in favor of the big plays. I think he's going to Chicago so he'll have better weapons than he had at USC so he has a little more room for error there.
Caleb can play no doubt, but do a breakdown on Drake Maye, Drake is almost NFL ready right now.
Jayden should go ahead of Caleb
@8:13 we had a QB that could do that.
As a raw prospect he’s pretty good, I’d much prefer him to Drake maye or JJ McCarthy, but he’s not perfect yet
Bo Dacious out played him in the Oregon game
I was never really that impressed with him honestly, he reminds of school yard nearly all the time.
You keep saying he doesn't have to be a savior, the guy he is replacing threw for 2500 yards 16 TD and 9 INTs in his prove it year. Next we drafted a tackle top 10 last year, we might do it again this year, Tevin is ther we paid for Davis and we probaby get Van Pran. We will get a WR from trading JF and the new QB will have a great O Line, DJ and Leggetee or Devontez, and Kmet who we paid. Caleb is going to be walking into a great situation. I am sick of people acting like we are not trending in the right direction.
He's going to a top 10 defense. Another top O lineman and a WR should be playoff time
Im almost certain williams isnt the #1 pick. Tbh if the bears are smart they trade the #1 for capital and draft MHJ. Williams has a issue with his reads. He misses a lot of open recievers on the back half of his reads. And causes him to have to do those scramble drill playmaker plays. Which is good. But the reason hes having to do that. Is very bad

Maybe more of a liability with his poor decision making. Hoping he can learn is not worth the risk considering the rest of what he is lacking.
As a USC fan, bears are going to ruin this man and it pisses me off
I don’t see a generational talent. So much to clean up and he is going to start day 1. Call me crazy, but give me Rattler
Yeah the guy who lost his job to caleb williams lmao idiot
Can’t wait till Williams or Maye is a BEAR…
So tired of Bustin! Let’s go 🫡🐻🤟🏼🏈
Jayden doesn’t pop like this at all
Trade with Washington, I’d hate to see him in Chicago 🙄
Foot work and progression needs cleaning up
So you watched Daniels highlights to form a conclusion, yet you don't do that for the other prospects???? biased as fuck
He broke down Jayden vs Alabama
Washington’s defense was horrible
cant wait for drake maye!!!
He’s gonna be a bust in the nfl.. he didn’t play good defenses at Oklahoma or USC. Washington was the #56 ranked defense in college football.
He says against one of the best teams in the country but their defense was terrible and that coming from a Washington fan 😂
If you think Caleb mechanics on footwork is bad...wait until you see Drake and Daniels😅
He already did Daniels vs Alabama
He already reviewed Daniels vs Alabama
I dont see him as 1 either. Media built.
Over Hyped , plus Bears already have a larger, faster and stronger version of 13 .
Cant read defenses and got traded for a 6th rounder ggs tho
When you question why he doesn’t make those NFL type throws, it’s because he can’t.
Tell me what NFL team's players are going to want to follow an arrogant drama queen with pink nails?
