I think, like his father, Luck is a B athlete but an A brain which means he can read defenses and make adjustments, things NFL types are very impressed with. Typically, the NFL gets A athletes with B-D brains for quarterbacks but there are some like Bob Griese and Tom Brady who are very smart in the way they run an offense and use that to hide their physical limitations. I think Drew Brees probably fits that title too - guys who don't have the body or the gun to be a great quarterback but know how be a great executioner and cover their weaknesses.
