An anonymous AFC offensive coach praised North Carolina Tar Heels quarterback Drake Maye after Maye was inspired by his pitching consultation last week.
“yes, he missed about two pitches early on and then he made money all the way through,” that coach texted Sports Illustrated’s NFL expert Albert Breer about Maye. “He’s so talented. It would be number 1 to choose in about 80% of drafts. “
That guarantees Maye may not be the No. 1 pick in this year’s draft. The Chicago Bears are expected to spend that asset on USC Trojans quarterback Caleb Williams. From there, Washington’s commanders can catch Maye, Jayden. Daniels, a recruit from LSU, or McCarthy from J. J. Michigan with the timing. The New England Patriots own the third pick in the draft and would have put McCarthy ahead of Maye at this point in the evaluation process.
“He’s a puppy, he’s very young, he’s very talented, he can make any and all pitches, he’s a monster,” the teacher added of Maye while texting Breer. “[The training] started by showing his ability to move, the tight and compact throw. The ball jumps out of his hand. He did a clever job moving and unbalancing the ball. There were some on one foot. It’s a smart task to have a lot of pitches there, in the other Variety of pitches. It has no limitations.
Several other people have compared Maye to Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen. It’s the idea that the New York Giants might try to move from the No. 6 pick to the No. 3 pick because New York head coach Brian Daboll was in the past. Allen’s offensive coordinator and might want to work with Maye. The coach who contacted Breer compared Maye to Los Angeles Chargers starter Justin Herbert.
“Drake, I mean, he’s 6’4 and he’s tall,” another offensive coach for an AFC team told Breer. “I can still see it reaching for the upper body; That’s where he looks a little young, however, he was given a huge structure and can throw the ball down the field. The strength of his arms is a big plus, especially if he’s going somewhere like New England over the end of the year. “
