He is a solid tight end and if he played there in college he would be best utilized as a blocker. He has solid hands, but does not come across as a natural receiver. He has solid size, but lacks ideal height. He does carry good bulk and we feel he will better use his skills as a defensive end. He is a physical kid and displays good strength. Displays the ability to fire off the ball low and take on a blocker and hold his ground. He can be good at using his hands to maintain some separation, but needs to be more consistent with this especially when engaging a blocker coming right out of his stance. He is a solid tackler and displays good straight-line speed. As a pass rusher he can create some push, but needs to keep developing his pass rush arsenal and using his weapons. Herring is a solid prospect who offers some versatility though we think he projects best to defense. (Rating: 75)
