By Lance Zierlein, same guy who hit Mac Jones eval spot on
Seems pretty fair based on what we have seen so far:
Challenging evaluation with top-flight measurables and tools but inconsistencies that create a lower floor. Maye’s size and arm talent jump off the tape immediately. He can make every throw, but he will try to make throws that he shouldn’t have attempted. The gunslinger mentality creates a fearlessness that can turn into interceptions, but it will also allow him to win in tight windows and make splash throws that get crowds (and evaluators) on their feet. He leaves too many throws on the back shoulder or hip and needs to learn when to take some sauce off the throw to make it more catchable. There is an undeniable energy to Maye’s game that can create momentum or turn chaotic when plays come off-schedule for him. The combination of traits and tape make him a boom/bust prospect who might need patient management and coaching to help shepherd him toward his potential.

- Struggles with the chess match against pressure looks.
- Inefficient throwing motion creates inconsistencies in accuracy.
- Receivers had to chase too many intermediate throws into the turf.
- Leaves the ball behind crossing routes and RPO targets.
- Can get uncomfortable when initial reads aren’t clear and clean.
- Sixteen career interceptions were mostly earned with poor decisions or throws.
