[ctpatsfan77]

OK. . . . instant grade time.

 

[NashuaPats]

We just won!

 

[borisman]

Tom Brady spotted with Drake Maye

 

[RobertWeathers]

A-

Should have traded out with MN for their 6th rounders till 2092.

 

[Froob]

A, all the measurables.

 

[Thunderhead]

I voted 'A'. It's a crap shoot drafting QBs, but you absolutely have to keep trying. Now, to weaponize to offense..

 

[TheRainMaker]

A. It was the right choice given their situation who was also mocked to the Pats.

 

[doesntmatter1]

I see why, but there is something about him I just don't like. Clearly hope I'm wrong.

 

[nabwong]

A. Always rated Maye, starting 5 mins ago.

It's a crap shoot so let's hope it works - I agree.

Personally not a fan as all anybody seems to talk about is his athletic ability which does not feel me with warm feelings. I very much hope to be wrong.

A. Always rated Maye, starting 5 mins ago.

This is the only answer.

B. Obvious thing to do if no trade back available. Unfortunately drafting Mac was also the obvious thing to do. I hope we don’t regret passing on Alt.

 

[Stu Pidassle]

The general consensus was that choosing a QB was dependent on the teams confidence in the player. Let's hope there was more reaction in the room for this pick than 'do you agree' Mac.

 

[signbabybrady]

He Maye not work out but at least for a year or two we get to believe we have our guy

 

[BennyBledsoe]

I'd have rather had Alt or Harrison. Guys that could start building a foundation for someone eventually.

 

[TheRazorsEdge]

For nearly 1 year I've been going back and forth in my circles on how Maye needs to be our next QB.

This is a great night. I'm going to drink a lot.

Took tommorow off work.

This is awesome.

LFG PATS!!!!!!

 

[Drunken Cicerone]

It’s an A

You drafted a position you need, the most important position in the game
You drafted the best player available at that position

Now to see if it pans out

 

[BostonWolverine]

Very happy, especially considering how some teams reached for QBs (Penix, Nix).

 

[zimmy]

Has to be an A. It might not work out but they took the best QB left on the board. Also happens to fit their system well.

I'd like to see what the Giants were offering and it might make me change my grade. But right now A.

 

[lancerman]

Based on how the rest of the draft went, it's an A. They were screwed if they traded out.
