Player Analysis

The Good

  • Good footwork
  • Decent runner for size
  • Decent touch on some deep passes

The Bad

  • Questionable accuracy
  • For being 6’6”, he has a lot of passes tipped
  • Lack of velocity on passes
  • Very stiff as a passer

Overall Assessment

PRE-DRAFT: Luton has old school prototypical size and can scramble pretty well for a 6’6” quarterback.  Nothing else impresses me. He has a hard time passing on the run, lacks velocity, and isn’t very accurate on his passes.  At best, he is a project and I would be surprised if he was anything other than a 7th round pick or UDFA. Fantasy irrelevant.

POST-DRAFT: Luton was drafted by Jacksonville in the sixth round of the NFL Draft.  He looks to be a developmental prospect, but if he can beat out Joshua Dobbs as the backup, he will be in a pretty solid situation. Gardner Minshew looks to be an adequate starter, but if he were to struggle there may be an opportunity for the backup.  Keep an eye on the Jaguars during camp and if Luton takes the backup role, he may be worth adding to a taxi squad in a superflex league.
