Herbert= DeShaun Watson
Finley= Trubisky
Lock= Flacco
Jones= Tannenhill
Rypien= Keenum
Grier= Mariota

Grier=Mariota? Have you ever seen Grier play?

It's definitely not the best comparison, but I was trying to compare him to another athletic QB who had inflated college numbers and a so-so arm, whose college success probably wouldn't translate to NFL success. Maybe Tannenhill is a better choice and Jones would compare more to Bortles. In any case, other than Herbert, I'm not sold on anyone in this class.

I like the Jones+ Rypien comps. Herbert =Watson and Grier =Mariota are wildly off

Admittedly, the Grier=Mariota one is off, but I still believe Herbert compares favorably to Watson. Both are athletic QB's with good arms who possess the ability to make accurate passes on the run.
