Here's a clip:

His biggest challenge will be improving his ability to process and quickly work through his progression. He gets stuck on his first read too often, which leads to some forced throws and missed opportunities elsewhere on the field. Also, he needs to improve his overall decision making. He'd be better served to take some sacks or throw the ball away as opposed to jamming the ball into crowded areas. The good news is all of his flaws are fully correctable, but it will take time.

Looking forward to seeing how much Justin has progressed after this full off-season, fall camp and the early tune-ups before Stanford comes on September 22nd. With his size, intelligence and athletic ability, he can truly become a special quarterback.

His last two outings, the Las Vegas Bowl and the Spring Game, were both ragged. Herbert at his sharpest can be very sharp indeed, maybe sharp enough to lead a team to double-digit wins.
