Justin HerbertQBLAC
Herbert showed top-10 quarterback performance when throwing under 2.5 seconds (7th in success rate, 10th in EPA), indicating the Chargers' offensive line issues—not Herbert's ability—were the primary problem last year. With new offensive line help and scheme adjustments including changed footwork in OTAs/mini camp, Herbert has significant upside in the Shanahan system, especially given the historical trend that Shanahan-tree play callers with legit quarterbacks throw for ~45 touchdowns per year (Burrow, Matt Ryan, Stafford, Baker Mayfield examples).
