Stanford Football: 5 Things to Expect out of Andrew Luck's Pro Day

Not that his pro day will mean much, because quarterback Andrew Luck is still likely going to be the No. 1 draft pick overall in April's NFL draft.

But his pro day is scheduled for March 22 and will give him another chance to showcase his talent and convince the few naysayers that remain that he is the best overall player this draft has.

This isn't exactly the combine, but it does give scouts and other important people the chance to get a few more questions answered about players they are considering drafting. There will be a few players that take the field during Stanford's pro day, but everyone's eyes will be on Luck.

Here are five things to expect from him when he takes the field.

Accuracy Is for Real

If anyone is questioning this guy's accuracy, they need to be checked into a mental institution. Seriously, Luck completed a total of 70 percent of his passes the last two seasons and can fit the ball into the tightest places where only his receivers can catch the football.

If you want him to throw the ball deep or under 15 yards, he'll put the ball right on the money. If you want him to put the ball through a certain building, he can do that as well. Just tell him which window you'd like the ball to be placed and he'll get it done.

Arm Strength Isn't Going to Wow You

Luck has decent arm strength, but it's no cannon. He isn't Matthew Stafford or Ryan Mallet with the arm and shouldn't be trusted to throw a deep ball with any consistency. This doesn't mean he can't throw the ball deep; his timing makes up for a lot of what his arm lacks. But he doesn't put much spin on the football, and it can sometimes come out a little weird.

He'll be able to make all of the throws, but don't expect a bionic arm to take the field.

Decision Making/IQ Is Top Notch

One of the things that separates Luck from every other quarterback in this draft is his intelligence and decision making on the field. This may go unnoticed by many viewers that watch him play, but being able to look off a defender and knowing what the defense is doing is something that separates the good quarterbacks from the elite.

Luck is very smart, and his intelligence on the field, combined with his athletic ability, makes him a scary player and the definition of a "can't-miss" prospect.

Mobility Will Impress You

This is the most underrated part of Luck's game. He may not be Michael Vick or Robert Griffin in the pocket, but he's more than comfortable moving around and picking up chunks of yards with his feet when he has to. Don't let the 3.2 yards-per-rush average fool you; he is an athlete and can scramble to pick up first downs.

This part of his game really takes his stock to the next level and should really secure that No. 1 pick.

Nothing Much

We're not going to learn much about Luck on the pro day that we already don't know. He's an extremely talented player that will likely have a very successful career. We know what he's capable of and that his game has very few weaknesses. We don't need another workout to tell us anything when we've already seen it in action the last three years.

Luck is without question the No. 1 pick in next year's NFL draft. And that will hold true regardless of how he performs on pro day. (Unless of course, his throwing arm happens to fall off in some way.)
