Final Report
Luke Altmeyer is a 5th Year Senior QB out of Illinois by way of Ole Miss that finished his last year 9-4 with a 3000-22-5 line. He is a smart, heady player who can read a defense and manipulate defenders with his eyes, but his physical limitations and poor mechanics won't fly in the NFL. He double clutches before he throws and gets a lot of throws batted at the LOS as a result. He also throws off platform too often, and lacks the arm strength to drive it into tight coverage. He'll also fumble when he takes a big hit. That said, he has smarts and balls/moxie, check out his game winning drive against Rutgers in his senior year. He can find a backup role in the NFL to operate an offense while a starter is down, but probably isn't a viable starter.
