2024 NFL Draft results for Drake Maye. What is Drake Maye's fantasy football outlook with the New England Patriots? Read his fantasy football outlook.
DRAFT PICK: 1st Round (#3 Overall Pick)
TEAM: New England Patriots
DRAFT ANALYSIS: The New England Patriots selected North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye with the third overall pick of the 2024 NFL draft on Thursday night. The Patriots will open the Jerod Mayo era with a new franchise QB in Maye after the team traded former first-rounder Mac Jones to the Jaguars this offseason.

The 21-year-old has prototypical size at 6-foot-4, 223 pounds, plenty of arm strength, and the intangibles that coaches like. However, he's much more of a project than Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels and may need to sit for a year behind Jacoby Brissett and Bailey Zappe before New England is comfortable naming him the unquestioned starter under center. Long-term, though, Maye has the talent to be a great QB in the NFL. The team took wide receivers Ja'Lynn Polk and Javon Baker later in the draft. Given the lack of high-end weapons on the roster, those two pass-catchers could be critical to Maye's development.
