Drake May is having his pro day today in
lovely North Carolina we have some
Source on the ground who have worked
with Drake May and maybe worked with
like Tom Brady o maybe worked with like
Andrew Luck maybe worked with like pton
Manning okay and said that Drake May is
the guy of this draft now is he biased
because he’s a graduate of that
particular school and he was also
helping consult with that school this
past year and his I don’t want to say
retirement era but like his retirement
from coaching era but can’t get away
from it completely because it’s
literally ingrained in his entire
lifestyle is to be around football we’re
talking about Clyde Christensen here who
was my coach at the Indianapolis Colts
then he was down with Tampa Bay and he
had Andrew and pton here and Tom and
he’s been there for the last year just
Consulting advising and everything like
that not allowed to be on the field but
in the meeting rooms and stuff like that
it’s like this new role that a lot of
teams have instituted he says this guy’s
the guy yeah he says uh he’s Andrew he
said when I’m talking to him I’m talking
to Andrew which is a very fascinating
thing because Andrew went to Stanford he
went to North Carolina so you’re
immediately going to assume that Andrew
much bigger nerd sure than he is in
North Carolina and we’ve heard the
talking from his family and everything
like that he goes they’re both nerds
okay they look the same Drake May might
be a little bit faster than Andrew Luck
and he said he’s not saying that he’s
going to have the exact accomplishments
of Andrew Luck because obviously Andrew
Luck was an incredibly special player
but he’s saying whenever he’s dealing
with Drake May talking Drake May
watching the film of Drake May and what
he’s going to prove in the prod day on
the board and also throwing around for
people is he is very similar to Andrew
Luck and uh he says if anybody doesn’t
draft him they’re going to regret it
that’s just how it’s going to be he said
other quarterbacks might be NFL
quarterbacks as well but he right right
right right right which is how he talks
says this is an NFL guy no questions
asked so that’s very high respect coming
from a guy who has a lot of respect
amongst his peers around the NFL I
assume he’s going to be catching up with
a lot of old friends that are GMS and
coaches for his 20 plus years in NFL
being a quarterback coach but he’s
singing the Praises of Drake May and
it’s not because he’s going to get
credit for it no it’s because he’s been
around him for a full year saw him
experience highs whenever they were
potentially going to the college
football playoff Lowe’s new teams around
him NCAA suspensions to like his number
one weapon him potentially getting an
offer offer of five million dollars to
go other places not going it’s like
everything about Drake May Clyde
Christian former NFL coach now adviser
over there in North Carolina screams NFL
guy so now you start looking at like
number two overall pick yep because the
commanders are sitting there they need a
quarterback obviously of the future if
that’s what they’re going to do with a
whole new face whole new ownership whole
new everything or they gonna get Jaden
Daniels after what Jaden Daniels did
yesterday his pro day that elbow’s
interesting yeah he’s weird that elb
that elbow is very interesting he could
spin it but like Drake may now is the
topic of conversation and everything
we’re hearing from people that are close
to him it’s like Drake May is gonna be a
guy for the next 15 years yeah your
thoughts con man is the Patriots H
number three and there’s a chance that
Drake May is available but there’s also
a chance that Drake May slides up to two
and the way Clyde was talking like hey
don’t think Chicago’s not doing a little
bit of snooping around on what Drake may
could potentially be in the NFL as well
that’s a wild thing to hear because
we’ve all assumed Caleb’s the guy then
Jaden and we heard Drake fell but
instead it seems like it’s going to the
opposite direction yeah especially with
JJ flying up like people are talking
about him going three over Drake now
which has been kind of wild but as a
Patriots fan I love this cuz I have kind
of talked myself into Drake May if you
will these last couple weeks and then
you hear the stuff from The Source s
about Drake May and it’s like okay hold
on we might be getting you know what
happened with the Chargers and Herbert
you might be getting that guy that falls
that doesn’t you know he doesn’t go he’s
not the first quarterback he’s not the
second quarterback he’s the one that
everyone’s like yeah who knows maybe he
will be good maybe he won’t and because
of that because of the size I mean I
expect Drake May to throw an 80 yard
touchdown pass today and him to be the
favorite to be number one overall but
he’s so big which is something that
people are going to see whenever they
see him you know anything about these
college quarterbacks at all going into
the draft perk well you know what I know
that all of them are dual quarterbacks
all of them can move thre they can move
out of the pocket you know and I’ve been
you know I’ve been listening you know
listening to the analyst listening to
you guys and I’m just trying to see
don’t listen to us what is the knock on
Drake so his team did
[Music]
is that’s football that’s unfair in any
team sport because you could be doing
your job but the rest of the guys around
you are just not that damn good how’s
that in an indictment on him well the
NCAA also kept like his best player yeah
off the field for like seven weeks wide
receiver that he wasn’t allowed to play
for no reason it was classic NCAA doing
NCAA dumb things but like yeah that’s
football though that’s how the
quarterback but how much pressure is on
the Chicago Bears to get this right man
this is this is game changing right when
was the last time you had this many
quarterbacks and that that were at this
status that so I guess it was Joey Tua
yeah that was last and I mean they all
worked out but like the most the last
time it was this many quarterbacks in
the first round was the M Jones Lawrence
Zack Wilson Tre Lance Justin field and a
lot of those did not work out so that’s
like it’s it’s a real role of the it
really is like what CJ stra just did
down in Houston
right abnormal yeah e yeah
oh another I’m I’m I’m just saying I’m
an ambassador for the Texans if you
didn’t know yeah H time another Texans
yeah you guys were supposed to suck
that’s what was supposed to happen you
were supposed to be an ambassador of a
shitty franchise for the next 10 years
for 15 maybe you know and now all of a
sudden Deo comes in with a good energy
yeah and then you get Will Anderson on
the defensive side of the ball then all
of a sudden CJ Str becomes the greatest
rookie quarterback in the history of the
NFL but that’s not normal usually these
guys suck and we lost tank
in the middle of the Season who was a
game changer out of U of AG so I mean
I’m just looking at it right now I had
tweeted this during the season cuz I’m a
huge Caleb Williams guy like I’m huge on
you’re in La a lot yeah I am three days
out the week but that’s that’s half the
year that’s big time yeah but I but I
I’ve been watching him okay and I
tweeted I said he’s the Patrick Mahomes
of college when I was watching him play
cuz he’s that Dynamic to be honest with
you I just don’t see any other
quarterback that’s better damn y’all
quick yeah that’s ZD baby back there
doing some searching out there 237,000
views uh people respect your your NFL
views as well that’s a lot I mean I
don’t know if it was respect or just you
know I don’t know what the comment
section was saying oh you think there’s
a lot of people saying oh part shut up
you don’t know yeah you’re talking about
yeah you think NFL GMS or owners or
coaches care about their college record
and has it helped because Mahomes
Mahomes I think was 500 Tech to Tech and
Josh Allen I think get a not a losing
season at Wyoming but not the best
season do you think they do you think
they care so my immediate thought right
there is we should FaceTime Brandon be
right now yes and just see what he has
to say but that’d be putting him in a
bad spot but he did take Josh Allen did
after the Bad season and Daniel Jeremiah
actually just said yesterday about Drake
may he said I’m old enough to remember
and he even mentioned Jordan love and
that’s what I was going to say is like
as a Packers fan when you were looking
at that stuff and seeing just like his
highlights and you look at his stats
it’s like why the hell are they taking
this guy but then a couple years later
you realize like oh he was he was like
the only guy on his team that got
[Music]
drafted

Maye's character is the complete opposite of Williams. It will be interesting to see these two in the NFL.
“Maxx Crosby is THE 2024 DPOY” – Former NFL Guru
Drake Maye = Brett Favre
Caleb Williams ' grit worries me the most, and im a Bears Fan. nails and tears and NIL money and Hollywood time worries me
May is an interception machine waiting to happen. He may become good. But he has a lot of work to be done before he’s good enough to be a really good qb.
🧢
The best qb will be Daniel’s, Williams, and penix
Whoever gets Maye, will be superbowl bound in 5 yrs
Yo JD5 been had his elbow Drained. Yall tripping 🤣🤣🤣
The only things Maye and Luck have in common are being white, having a big throwing arm, and prototypical size among QBs. Luck came into the NFL as a fully developed pro QB, with smarts and analytical tools to go with. Maye is a big kid with a big arm who needs "a lot of work", to be charitable. Watch his games against decent teams, if you don't agree, not his meaningless pro day.
That was a great one
Both JT of qb school and Simms say he's not the guy.
Psssh. Not Luck. More a Josh Allen Jr
I agree Luck never won anything either. SMDH
Bears fan…I’ll take Caleb. In the pocket and in structure he’s elite…when plays break down…he’s elite.
Drake Maye is the only QB in this draft with top 3-5 NFL QB potential… “IF” he hits. That’s the key though, “if”. No one in this draft makes the kinds of throws Drake Maye does. But he does have some bad habits but I swear he reminds me of a more athletic Philip Rivers.
Sound's crazy I'd love to see the Steelers get him
So he is gonna retire after 5 years?
Chicago is gonna pass for one of the dumb reasons seen in the comments and he'll go on to win multiple SBs. That city is cursed.
Bro The second I saw you had Cancer Perkins I was downvote and out!
Will the Jets or Chiefs take this kid ?
👀 who is the WR he is throwing too #3?
NFL scouts don’t know how to draft quarterbacks.
Probably just me, but Hartman and Milton were the only seemingly natural IQ passers, and the only ones who threw with anticipation at combine. Maye looked at least better than McCarthy, but they are throwing guys open. Milton has a rocket farm, is accurate downfield, and able to adjust ball speed and arc at will, and throwing with anticipation. Hartman seemed the most poised, the mindset for a good QB in the NFL, confident, he threw before receivers broke routes, all very catchable balls, nothing off the map. Not starters, but the ceiling could be just as high after a year behind someone.
15 years of stability at the QB position is music to my ears as a Commanders fan.
Just another pro typical 6 4 quarterback who managed to start in a Top X program. High chance he fades into mediocrity. Way more upside with Williams or Daniels.
I really like Drake Maye, I can definitely see him being successful in NFL. Of the QBs that are down on the list I like Bo Nix.
There is only 1 good qb in this draft and its Jayden Daniel's.
He looks nothing like andrew luck.. i do not understand this comparison AT ALL
Caleb Williams reminds me of Jason Campbell, once upon a time QB for Washington. I don’t think he is the best QB of this class
just saw a video of Chris Simms saying Maye isnt even a top 10 pick, he is a project.
With all the drama in Dallas.. if Penix is available with Dallas picking! Do they pick him up.. 👀
Peters and Quinn are not picking a slight, thin, spindly qb. Who still needs developing. Drake also needs nurturing as he is only 21. He will sit a year and learn. There is no rush. The ownership, front office, and couches are building for the future. It's outrageous that some fans think that with this new regime, are going down the Snyder route. Just think about it folks.
Didn’t scouts also say Daniel Jones was the next Eli Manning when he came out?🤔 hmm. Welp, time will tell💯. Gimme JD: I’ll take the Lamar Jackson Jr.
Maye has to go to a good team, Wash and NE will ruin him. Maye and McCarthy can run but not like Williams and Daniels. Wash and NE are absolutely not the destinations for these two good QB's – they will make an otherwise good prospect fail.
Really hope he ends up with the Giants and be the starter in 2025
Drake Maye is the most overrated prospect of this draft, without a doubt. He has bust written all over him. Andrew Luck…not even close.
as an eagles fan i pray washington takes maye at 2 🙏
So who do the Patriots grab Drake Maye l, JJ McCarthy or Jayden Daniels
Drake will be head and shoulders the best QB out of the draft. Daniels could be really good but I feel like he will get injured unfortunately, but I don’t see Caleb doing anything at the pro level.
