Although some still feel Justin Herbert isn’t going outside of the top 10 picks, his final stretch of the 2019 season was a bit concerning from an NFL evaluation standpoint.

Still, I liked a lot of what we saw from Herbert this year in terms of his improvements as a passer, and there’s no question about his physical talent and the significant experience he has at a very high level of college football.

Herbert’s size, arm talent, and athleticism make him a fascinating fit in Bruce Arians’ offense in Tampa Bay where he would have a plethora of skill players to get the ball to.

Herbert’s big arm and ability to push the ball downfield could be a perfect match with Arians and at this point, he’s kind of a steal.

Even if he’s got room to grow as a prospect, Herbert will easily come in and do a better job of taking care of the ball than Jameis Winston who threw 33 touchdowns and 30 interceptions this year.
