So there was that one NFL GM who said he'd take Herbert over Burrow

Is he playing hurt? All of his throws look like he's trying not to break the egg in the middle of the ball.

First time really watching him this year, so educate me.

Herbert is a little taller and a little heavier.

OK. Seeing stronger throws. The first couple I saw it looked like he was laboring to even lob it.

He has a great arm, just a weird delivery

I'm yet to watch an Oregon game where I was overly impressed by Hebert. Maybe I'm expecting too much based on his potential as an NFL prospect, but he seldom feels like he has a grip on the game.

Classic qb with all the measurables.

Hebert is heavier in the gut with a stronger arm but with less touch and accuracy.

I thought it was just me with this thought. Last year it seemed like everyone was drooling over him and saying he's a top 10 pick, and I just don't see it. He has moments but man, I just haven't seen it from him.

Reminds me of a Jeff George type. Scouts see him in practice and drills and he has all the tools and measurables but just doesn’t have it when the lights come on. Good player just not great.

NFL scouts are a lot like women.

They like the fixer upper, the guy that could be awesome if they just got a couple things straight

That guy over there with the good job from a good family who listens to what she says? Yeah they are great! They would love it if one of their friends (another NFL team) dated that guy, he’s awesome! But draft him for yourself?? Ehhhh

Herbert is listed at 6’6” 240 lbs. comparable to Big Ben yet an inch taller. Last year at this time NFL projections were 1. Tua 2. Herbert 3. Fromm 4. Eason ... Joe wasn’t even on the radar

Nobody said that about George. His issue as attitude.

Jeff George's problem was he was a fricking dickhead.
