Bryce is about half the height of Maye. Bryce is tiny and due to it being a soft QB draft he was over-hyped. He does not have the arm or the mobility of Maye.
It's important that the patriots play to win, because it teaches both Maye and Mayo what it takes to win from their position.
How could anyone move up to draft a smurf number one overall????? Worse draft pick than Trey Lance…shockingly incompetent..hes not even good on paper
I'm sorry, you can't compare a 5'9", 170 pnds, skinny and middling arm strength QB to a 6'4" 220pds, very strong QB. Maye is not Bryce Young nor Mac Jones and the Pats have a lot more talent than the Panthers. Maye should start this season around game 10, baptism by fire. That's the only way. Mahomes sat behind Alex Smith, a probowl QB, Maye is sitting behind a backup QB. He has to start.
true but i was in LA at the time. there was awful lot of distractions and drugs and women. i had to go back to boston i was afraid i was going to end up on skid row. got to know your limitations. and there isn't anything for maye to worry about in massachusetts. them snitches keep any potential of an LA like atmosphere occuring in massachusetts totally impossible. everyone is related to a cop. all he's got to do is his job.
i am not interested in letting another mac happen i learned my lesson jackobi plays until his legs fall off. i don't care. if he doesn't want to play he's playing. we apologise for the offensive line but jacobi's skill set isn't as such to take full advantage of all the weapons but. he's got leadership qualities and i want maye to see those values over the course of a season and how important it is for a leader to at the very least have those qualities. so, we can't just bench jacobi. he wasn't brought in to get to the playoffs. he's a figure head to conceal the tinkering going on behind the scenes. that will be revealed at a later date.
Weird….Jemarcus Russell sat his entire rookie year and still sucked.
It’s almost like the player either has it or he doesn’t…
Tim Couch was picked in the expansion draft, so he was surrounded by no talent.
If Drake Maye went in at some point in the second half against the Seahawks, we are sitting at 2-0
Ya think…
I don’t think drake maye will be a bust I think he need time
Russell didn't "sit". He held out because back then there wasn't a rookie wage scale. Then he got hurt because he was out of shape
This is click bait – what do they say about Caleb?
Maye is way ahead of Bryce from a pure physical and arm standpoint . Maye looked great around subpar talent around him at UNC, any other draft he is a #1 overall pick. Footwork needs work but Mahomes didn’t have great footwork either, great decision to sit him and let him learn. Bryce is too small without any attributes such as a crazy arm or athleticism to overcome that. Only looked great at Alabama due to the sheer talent around him, he also had moments at Alabama against good teams such as Georgia where he looked very average, that should have been a red flag. He is supposed to be a good processor of the game, that was his selling point but tbe NFL is a whole another ball game you need the physical attributes to be successful not just the mental. He’s not really reading defenses well either, the game is way faster than at Alabama. Sadly I think his career is done. He may stick around as a back up but that’s about it.
So if instead of Spurgeon Wynn the Browns take Tom Brady, do we still know who Tom Brady is?
Mac Jones had everything around him? Matt Patricia as his offensive coordinator, receivers that couldn't separate, and an offensive line that was cosplaying as a turnstile? Mac wasn't Dan Marino, but don't say he had everything around him. Belichick ruined that kid.
I'm strongly of the opinion that a QB *prospect is only as good as their surroundings.. obviously talent and physical traits factor in.. but I truly believe that if Mahomes went through the same circumstances as Bryce.. he'd already be out of the league… now if you take current mahomes and drop him on any terrible team, it's a different story.. but that's why the first 2-3 years of. QB's development are so crucial.. and even if it doesn't "decide" who they're gonna be for the rest of their career, they don't usually get a second chance like Baker right now.
