Herbert led the league in percentage of dropbacks pressured last year, the first quarterback since 2018 to do so while making the playoffs. The Chargers' offensive line was historically bad, but they've now added two all-pro tackles and one of the best centers, which should dramatically improve his situation. However, the source cautions that Herbert had a strong week one last year (28 fantasy points) that locked him into rosters before falling apart. Week three (at Buffalo) and week four (at Seattle) will be tougher matchups after easy weeks one and two against Arizona and Las Vegas.
