That's why Dupree never panned out despite elite size and quickness. I'm definitely going hard on Herbig tonight when I'm bored. I think you’ll enjoy. It’s a lot like TJs college tape at about 80%. TJ should take him under his wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJ could bend the corner. Herbig doesn't have that ankle flexion. Unfortunately, Herbig compares to the other undersized OLB who went to Atlanta to play FB.

TJ already has even before the draft. Watt wanted him to be a Steelers player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure he's a future starter, personally, but I do think he'll be a helluva utility and special teams players for us. He'll work his butt off, be a great teammate and be better than his measureables. I didn't 'love' him, but he'll be solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm at a loss for words," Herbig said, sniffling after every sentence to hold back the tears. "It's all I ever dreamed about, and I get a chance to play for the Steelers, a legendary organization, and I get to play with my brothers. That's all I could ever ask for." - post draft interview 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No choice right now anyways. UFA or maybe late round pick might help but don't count on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
