Burrow:
-A tape junkie. Studies film like a professional.
-Great decision-making.
-Great pocket awareness and escape ability.
-Marked improvement in accuracy and big play-making capability.
-Unequivocal leader of that LSU offense.
Is there a risk of him being another "one year wonder" that flames out quickly in the NFL? Sure. But of the QB prospects likely to declare next year, he and Tua seem to be the most polished, pro-ready QBs of the bunch. So if we're going QB with our first pick, I'd roll the dice here. The problem is Miami may now have their sights on him, given Tua's latest injury.
Herbert may have higher upside than Tua and Burrow, but he's an unrefined prospect that's going to need some work to live up to his potential. But on the flip side, he's one of those guys where the bust factor may be a bit higher. And while I don't want to label a guy I don't know, just going by his interviews he seems to have a meek personality. I've had my fill of that. Give me a QB with fire in his gut.
