Expert Analysis
Alan Popadines | Prep Redzone Scout
In terms of raw potential and athletic ability, Herbert has to be near the top of the list when looking through the New Jersey 2029 prospects. He was the clear standout on a Rahway Seminoles team that has some pieces, but thrives when Herbert is clicking. He’s a big kid with a great frame and looks like he’ll have that highly sought-after D-End/Linebacker/Edge type of body.

may have been the prospect on the field with the most upside and potential out of any–and I saw more than a couple future D1 players in the game. I hesitate to say this, but since this game was in New Jersey and not far from The Meadowlands, there was some Lawrence Taylor to his game. At times he was unblockable as an Outside Linebacker attacking the edge. At an estimated 6-foot-1 and 180-pounds, he made a couple of key tackles behind the line of scrimmage early in the game that had me pondering if he had a future as a Defensive End too. He also spent a fair amount of time on the sidelines when the game became out of reach. If he can consistently stay checked in and focused, the sky is the limit for Herbert.
