I don't know that age plays much of a factor. Maturity would play more of a factor and age doesn't always determine that. In the Herbert/Burrow instance, Herbert has more snaps/attempts than Burrow does in college and the NFL. Burrow has 1,922 attempts combined and Herbert has 2,642. Not a huge difference but i don't think their age is that big of a difference either. 

The kind of funny/interesting thing (to me at least) is that they're both right around the exact same amount of attempts that they each had when they left college, right now.

P.S. The age difference is 1y 3m.
