Recent Luke Falk Notes
Luke Falk
in our view
Falk has some workable NFL traits with his touch, toughness and intelligence, but he lacks the arm and anticipation to be a tight-windowed passer and will need time to learn a NFL offense to stay on a roster.
strengths
Excellent timing and touch passer. Delivers catchable balls high completion percentage passer in college. Hits receivers in stride to create catch-and-run opportunities. Subtle quickness in the pocket to buy extra half-seconds. Tough scrambler and will fight for extra yards. Highly productive collegiate career, setting the Pac-12 records for career passing yards (14,481), career passing touchdowns (119), and career completions (1,403). Earned his way as a former walk-on, winning the 2017 Burlsworth Trophy. Nose always in the playbook. Dedicated himself to the program probably more than most people will ever realize, according to Mike Leach. Dane Brugler 12/30/2017
weaknesses
Lacks the arm strength to add RPMs when needed his fastball is more of a change-up for most NFL passers. Doesnt trust his arm to fit the ball into tight windows. Inconsistent anticipation, leading to closed routes. Hesitant and holds the ball much too long. Indecisive eyes, especially when rushed with pressure. Takes too many hits and appears gun shy after a few pressures. Mistakes tend to linger benched twice as a senior due to ineffective stretches. Lean, lanky body type, leading to durability concerns missed the 2017 bowl game with a left wrist injury. Not a rush threat due to average athleticism and stiff lower body. Benefited from a system offense and his high completion percentage reflects high volume of underneath throws. Comfortable with a small town vibe and might not find comfort in a big market team.
