In the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft, UNC quarterback Drake Maye is being analyzed by Jason Fitz from Yahoo Sports for potential team fits. Fitz suggests that the New England Patriots could be a good match for Maye due to their offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt’s desire to run a Kevin Stefanski-like offense. Maye’s mobility and accuracy with the ball may mesh well with the team’s needs, even though they have multiple roster holes to fill.
Fitz believes that most teams in need of a quarterback, such as the Giants, Raiders, and Broncos, should consider selecting Maye. Despite his stock dropping slightly before the draft, his skills and versatility as a quarterback still provide value for teams looking to solidify their position. Fitz also mentions the New York Giants as a potential landing spot for Maye due to his size and skillset similarities with Josh Allen, which could appeal to Brian Daboll’s offensive coordinator. With uncertainty surrounding current quarterback Daniel Jones, acquiring Maye could be a strategic decision for the Giants as they look to improve their quarterback situation.
