Justin Herbert is JJ Zachariason's preferred late-round quarterback with multiple back-stack options available. Gadston is the most common pairing, with QJ and Brennan Thompson also available in late rounds, providing flexibility without early-round QB investment. Herbert is drafted nine spots ahead of ADP and is essential to team construction for week 17 stacking; pairing him with Gadston is described as "basically fine" and part of a well-designed overall fantasy football team. Herbert-Gadston stack is acceptable for playoff positioning despite uncertain expected value.

We're going to take Justin Herbert. There are multiple back stacks for Herbert. We have Gadston, we have QJ, we have Brennan Thompson who we can take in the very last round. Gadston is going to be my most common combinatorial pairing there... Would I be okay with a quarterback room of Justin Herbert and Kyler Murray? Yes. I think that is perfectly acceptable... nine spots ahead of average draft position... I do think Herbert and Gadsden is basically fine, but to me this is just a well-designed overall solidly thought out fantasy football team.
