What Sherman aspires to be
Joe Burrow is a good college quarterback.
With a great trio of NFL caliber WRs he's throwing to. They've made him look better than he is but you're right, he's a good college QB.

He will have actual nfl wr's to throw to when he get's drafted so if having "nfl caliber" is the reason he is good on his college team, he should be awsome surrounded by actual nfl players. Right?
Sindelar broke his clavicle. His injury-riddled college career is over.
Probably gets a camp invite based on his arm.

Yep, but he was granted a 6th year of eligibility prior to the season. He could come back again and play for Purdue next year if he wants to.
Watching the Oregon game tonight, just about finished, where the Ducks stumble to a victory over a Cal team with their Back up QB starting. Another game of watching Herbert, with the same familiar feeling. The guy looks the part, has one or two great plays, can clearly throw a great ball from time to time but on the whole fails to impress. Just doesn't seem to be a player that can carry his team to wins, nothing excites me about him. I'm sure he'll get drafted very high in April but hope it's not us that take him.
I totally agree on his durability, actually the Steelers fit is perfect and they should use their first to find big Ben's replacement .... oh wait :) The physical aspects are all there, I don't think there is a debate there, if you were going to mold a QB out of clay and give him arm talent from the gods, Herbert would be pretty close to what you landed upon. It's the intangibles that concern me more than anything, I don't see that ability to drive a team to wins, that game changing instinct to know what to do at the right moment, that we saw consistently from the likes of Mayfield, Murray, Tua and Lawrence. I think those football instincts are what separates these prospects, from the good to the great, if he lands in the right situation I'm sure Herbert will be a success at the next level.He was very inconsistent, but a few thing stood out to me. First, I believe he will survive NFL Level sacks better than most. He reminds me of Big Ben, the durability aspect of Big Ben, during his early years. Second, he is a better scrambler than I thought he was.
