This is right. Herbert at 2 was never under consideration. There were questions about him because of the decline in performance his senior year at Oregon. That's why he slid to 7th overall. It was Joe Burrow the lead pipe lock franchise guy and then Tua and Herbert both showed promise but had questions.

The questions around Tua have borne themselves out: can he take NFL level punishment? Definitely had his share of injuries.

And with Herbert he just quieted the questions about his senior year and played like a stud. Face it the Chargers got lucky. There's a major element of luck involved here.
