2019 NFL Mock Draft: Projected first round after Week 10
Oregon Ducks. Justin Herbert. 1. player. 16. . Quarterback
Is this a surprise to anyone? Buffalo’s offense is ranked 32nd in points scored (10.9 per game) 32nd in passing yards, 32nd in passing touchdowns (three) and their quarterback of the future Josh Allen does not look like he will be ready to play at a competitive level for the next couple of years.
What does this mean for Bills nation? It means that the team should reset and draft another quarterback that isn’t viewed as a long-term project.
Justin Herbert is a dynamic player who can throw the ball accurately and can make plays with his legs. This season he has thrown for 2,069 yards, 20 touchdowns with six interceptions.
He has also been a threat scrambling the ball with two rushing touchdowns on the ground and is averaging nearly three yards per carry.
The Bills need help at quarterback, running back (since LeSean McCoy is getting older and may be cut during the off-season) and wide receiver (Kelvin Benjamin has been a bust).
In the Ducks 42-21 win over UCLA Saturday, Herbert finished the game 18-32 for 264 yards and two touchdowns.
Finding the quarterback of the future, who many believe is the best quarterback on the board is the smart play here. If the Bills do not go for a quarterback expect Nick Bosa or Ed Oliver to be the pit.
