Caleb Williams has seen his odds of being the No. O ctober 24, 2023: What was once a foregone conclusion, is now starting to heat up the rumor mill. McCarthy at +3,000 and Penn State OT, Olomuyiaw Fashanu rounding out the Top 5. Behind them, Marvin Harrison is still at +2,000 with J.J.

November 9, 2023: Will it be Caleb Williams? Or maybe it'll be Drake Maye? Either way, we are in store for a debate all summer about which QB should go No.
