Since Fanaika, Burkett, and possibly (likely?) Herbig gone,

I must be missing something, but how has Herbig shown anywhere near enough to be drafted very high by the NFL? This year he has been hurt a bit, and has been part of the disaster we call the OL. The year before, he played OK, but not great. He wasn't plowing through the defense. If he wants a reasonable draft slot, he isn't going to get it this year, IMHO. No point in giving up a year at Stanford to go in the sixth round, or be a UFA (more probable).
