Why is Caleb Williams ranked all the way down there at No. 23? Let me explain QBI's process. First and foremost, the Chicago Bears quarterback finished 21st in dropback success rate among qualified quarterbacks last year...QBI really didn't like how inefficient Williams was despite boasting pristine protection; my model graded the Bears' offensive line as the top pass-protecting unit in the NFL in 2025.

Williams ranked 23rd by QBI; 21st in dropback success despite elite OL protection.

Ranked 23rd by QBI metric due to below-average efficiency despite elite pass protection. Williams finished 21st in dropback success rate among qualified QBs last year; QBI graded the Bears' offensive line as the top pass-protecting unit in the NFL in 2025, yet Williams was inefficient despite pristine protection. He did limit interceptions and sacks, but down-to-down efficiency was lacking. The source notes Williams has significant room to grow and a high ceiling, but must improve before QBI considers him a top-10 quarterback.
