    Herbert will be fine as long as he goes to a decent organization.

    So much depends on OL and organizations too. The Chargers would be a decent fit as they do have a decent line, rb & receivers.

    Chargers, Patriots, Colts, Cowboys, Buccaneers and Packers would be ideal for Herbert.

    I Like him allot!
    But for what he's being paid he better do better than 11 & 21 the next two years. His past performance and reputation got him that huge contract but he needs to win big soon to earn that contract.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    My condolences when Miami selects Justin Herbert at 5 (or 3).

    Only half-kidding (because reports are that only half of the Miami front office is on the Herbert train).

    For your sake, I hope so. I didn't think smoke screen because I don't see how it benefits them for people to think they may go Herbert over Tua. Are there teams that would leapfrog them to take Herbert in the top-five?

    I like qbs that have played baseball and Herbert was a decent pitcher and infielder in younger years.
    If he had played his last two years under Helfrich his college stats would be much better, IMO.

    If teams think they go Herbert at 5, leaving Tua on the board, then they potentially avoid anybody trading up to 3 or 4 to grab Tua in front of them.

    theyre doing anything to show they won’t take tua at 5, so nobody leapfrogs us for tua.

    I know Chase Young is awesome, really awesome, but if you were Washington wouldn't you SERIOUSLY consider trading back? I think it's interesting that everyone says Burrow and Young are lock at #1 and #2. Washington has a ton of holes.

    Washington is gonna get another decent pick or two. Trent Williams is very tradeable.

    I think the Lions might trade down for the aformentioned reasons especially if Chase Young is taken at #2.

    Imo, Lions are more likely to trade down.
