Schefter: Drake Maye to start vs Houston [Also reported by Rapoport, Reiss, Kyed and others]

[dliverey44]

If they wanted him behind a healthy o-line he should have started week 1. This is the NFL. Perfect situations dont exist.

We didn't have a healthy OL week 1. lol

Yes, a Left Tackle in the Top 5 who could anchor the line for the next 10 years is the kind of thing that sets organizations up for the long-term, especially when it protects your #3 pick from last year whom you believe is the man to take us there. But it's not just the first round that you get that top 5 pick, it's EVERY round. I don't know why people don't understand this.

So long as someone like scar evaluates him. Probability of them being a bust is so high…

 

[PancakeBlockPaul]

And **** orlovsky for saying what he did about starting him. Tosser.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

I don't know why people don't understand this.

People understand that.

 

[SEA_Pat]

Totally agree. If this is being done due to just Kraft pressure , then the org is clueless and even maye development cannot stop us from being basement dwellers.

That's why I feel this might be some level of intervention coming up from NFL higher ups including goodell.

The plan might have been to trot out brissett till London, but considering the focus on expanding bases, NFL might have threatened kraft into playing maye for London and delivering a. Good product on field, else fining and docking them picks for intentionally sabotaging season.

If the NFL cared about delivering a good product in London, why have the Jags been going there every year since 2015? Is it the close connection between London and Jacksonville?

This guy gets it:

Dude totally gets it!

If Mayo thought that Milton could score 24 points against HOU, he'd have started Game 1.

If you can throw deep you’ll get 3-4 PI calls for 40+ yards a game, they’ll probably catch a quarter of them, and you’ll throw 2-4 picks. You can make 24 pts happen

 

[VJCPatriot]

The OL needs to put on their best performance yet. If Maye gets destroyed by that Texan's DL we might soon regret rushing him out there.

 

[KamikazeKnight]

Excited to see him, but as others have said, this is an odd week to do it. Texans defense is good, and their pass-rushing ends are real good .. and our tackles suck. Holding josh to 9 for 31 is no joke. This has disaster written all over it!

1-4 is a disaster. It can't get much worse than Brissett... Remember, this guy hasn't been the steady and reliable QB we needed. We're rock bottom.

So Quick to judge, nobody is 100%, he's also very upfront when he misses. Did not know him., just happen to see his post because Kyles and Cattles follow him. He also agrees with me that Nabors and Maye the 2 most can't miss prospects in a long time so that did not hurt LOL.
But looking back historically he seems he hits way more than he misses.
A little different to say Drake Maye the best prospect in the last 4 years and I would stake my reputation on it vs. thinking Bryce Young can still be a good QB and then follow it in the comments respecting people that disagreed and saying will interesting how it plays out.

Some of His highest graded player the last 3 years:

Aidan Hutchinson- Sauce Gardner- Kyle Hamilton- Bryce Young (miss)- CJ Stroud- Will Anderson Jr.

I only found 3 people that got it somewhat right on Bryce Young at the time of the draft. Not counting myself. the reason they got that wrong has nothing to do with analyzing Drake Maye. They ignored historical facts to look at other variables, does not apply to Maye.

He has a more detailed breakdown of Maye here:

You keep saying this, but you don't have Guaranteed Pre-Vision.
Some guys get hurt, it's fkn NFL FOOTBALL, not Ballet Dancing.

Just to be a smart a$s... Per the Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy on Elite Ballet Dancers:

Professional dance companies have reported that as many as 67% to 95% of their dancers are injured on an annual basis.

I was quick to judge because it took me a half a second on my 1st try to find a misfire.

That being said, I hope you and he are very right about Maye.

 

[Uptown]

Maye/Pop connection will feed families.

 

[PatsFan2]

So there’s that.

Against an injury riddled Defense not buying it.

[PatsFan2]

Now we'll know how good our WR's are finally.

It’s easy to find wrong on Bryce Young, Lol

I hope I’m right too but barring injury seems he’s almost the perfect QB prospect so odds are good… and yet I’m still crossing fingers

 

[cmasspatsfan]

I'll be happy with a 200 yard game.
