My Take
Herbert fascinates me because his tools and his temperament point in opposite directions. The arm is loud, maybe the most effortless deep ball of his generation, yet the man himself is almost monastically quiet. Staying home to play for the Oregon Ducks in the very town where he grew up tells me something about his wiring: loyalty over spotlight. The sixth overall pick of 2020 has produced staggering numbers for the Chargers, and the only thing missing is a postseason narrative to match. When that finally arrives, the league will pretend it saw him coming all along. I will happily say I did.
