I don't do full game review until after the season but right now in what I have watched I like Tua because he has been doing it longer, but I think I'd be happy with either if it came down to it.

That team is not going to give up the 1st overall pick.  If they hang in there with the Bengals, they'll do some random shit like put their RB in at QB, or onside kick all punts.

If either of those two QB are gone by the Bengals pick, I would hope they drafted Thomas or trade down to get Simmons and Kindley in middle round 1.  They could still get Eason or maybe Costello.

He, from what i've seen, always looks to have a lot of time to throw. Other than that, i've really liked everything else about him. 

Unfortunately, i didn't get home in time to see too much of him Sat, cause when i turned the TV on, they were already up big. 

I think i'll go ahead and dig up anything and everything i can find on him tonight and we'll see how i feel about him tomorrow...


Feel free to add anything you feel he lacks or his positives. I like looking for things other people see.

Sometimes he will step up and other times he just bails out. He has some accuracy inconsistencies, especially as he pushes the ball down the field. Electric arm.

Speaking with Bleacher Report's Matt Miller, an NFL scout said that Oregon senior QB Justin Herbert will "get someone fired."

"I've never understood the love with this kid," the evaluator said, later adding that Herbert "doesn't have it." An area scout echoed those concerns, telling Miller that the 6-foot-6, 233-pound senior "lacks a killer mentality." While we understand the question marks with Herbert -- he has underwhelmed at times -- it's fair to note that the physically-gifted signal-caller is in the midst of a strong season on the whole, having thrown for 1,602 yards (69.1% completions) with a 17/1 TD/INT ratio in six games. Herbert remains a very good bet to land in the first round, with upward stock mobility which could push him as high as a top-five selection should a pro squad fall in love with him during the spring evaluating process.
