Scouts have come out in full force to crush Caleb Williams days before the NFL draft.

On Tuesday, several anonymous NFL coaches came forward to question Williams’ attitude and negatively compared him to Russell Wilson.

Meadowlark media’s David Fleming spoke with a former NFL scout who called out Williams for crying on the sidelines during a game this season.

“You just lost a game in the middle of your f—ing season and it was like your third loss in the Pac-12 and you went hugging on mommy and crying in mommy’s arms and it just seemed really fricking weak and nuts.”

According to the scout, Williams’ raw emotions not only scare him but will scare a lot of NFL teams looking to draft him.

“Raw emotion is great, but Caleb’s thing? That was ridiculous to me. That threw up major red flags. … I will tell you, he scares the sh-t out of a lot of NFL teams too. The book on him is he’s just kind of a weird kid. One GM told me it’s like if Prince played quarterback.”

Despite all the criticisms about Williams’ attitude, he’s still a massive lock to get drafted first overall in Thursday’s draft according to FanDuel
