you know McCarthy generally mechanics
are pretty good but they could
definitely be better here he’s got an
relatively easy throw and puts it out of
bounds Drake May is his footwork needs a
lot of work you can see here he’s just
all over the place never resets his feet
never really gets in position to throw
gets strip sacked too much hopping
around step up and throw penx uh good
example here of just where he needs to
hit the open man right he’s got a you
know here’s a back checking out of the
back field he’s got some pressure just
give it to him but he extends the play
runs around and the back gets killed for
a two- yard gain so these guys are all
really talented but they all have things
they need to work on and when you look
at Manning Brady Mahomes guys like that
the elite quarterbacks in the league you
see a gap between where these kids are
and where they need to go not saying
they can’t get there they just got some
work to do but Payton Tom Patrick
mahomes’s first year vastly different
than whenever they become the fully
shaped product and I think you’re big
messaging to me and to but we’re going
to continue to see them hopefully grow
into being the leaders like Wason
Commander’s brand new ownership yeah
brand new GM brand new era Jaden Daniels
now is going to be the face of that good
luck to him the Patriots also staring
down a brand new era because obviously
the man who had been in their draft room
their war room making decisions for 24
years yeah 24 years is now joining us
third overall pick from what I’ve been
told the pick is it whoa holy is
reporting that the pick is in and Boston
Conor
I wow Nationwide is on our side and
Drake May is going to be on no way New
England Patriot congratulations yeah we
we saw a tweet from Albert Breer uh that
reported on the internet that Drake May
will be selected by the Patriots with
the third overall pick there was some
chatter Connor that maybe they would
trade out of there you know maybe get
some more picks to continue to build on
you get the quarterback of the future
and Drake May how Zed are you pal I very
Zed I mean the the conversation around
the Patriots trading out was asinine if
that happened I think there’d be even
more riots than when the dynasty first
came out but having a guy at three was
something that we couldn’t even dream of
for 24 years cuz the greatest coach in
GM of all time always had us hanging
around at 28 29 30 31 and 32 and that’s
where you want to be you want to win
Super Bowls obviously last night cuz
he’s not out enjoying this time he’s
working he’s at the court he posted on
his instagam great Instagram follow I
would do it if I were you guys he’s
shooting shots I mean look at the style
look at the smile look at the baby blue
tie there is really nothing that you
can’t not love about Drake may I can’t
wait to hear about what bill bich says
about his film I heard it’s flawless I
heard every single part of his game is
perfect he can come in right away he can
win you in Super Bowl in the first year
realistically though it’s going to take
time obviously you know that is
something we have jacobe brassette now
brought him in to be that bridge
quarterback very understood from jacobe
as well couldn’t be more excited about
that bill obviously third overall pick
is something that no coach or GM ever
wants to have happen new err up there
how are you feeling right now watching
that happen with the team that obviously
you are so synonymous with and what do
you think about the player that they
took in this new
era uh well I think that’s certainly a
top need for him it’s quarterback tackle
and wide receiver and so you know this
is one of the top needs uh you know Dr
Compares himself a lot to Josh Allen he
does been doing that for quite a while
uh we’ll see about that I think there
are some similarities in terms of you
know size and and athleticism Josh
Allen’s pretty special player now so um
yeah but it’s draft season media this
what happens he’s tall he’s white he can
run yeah that’s Josh Allen that whole
thing but watching the Patriots pick up
a quarterback and enter this new era
what do what should we think about with
the film and what did you see from
watching them play Let’s go to Bill bich
che’s big breakdown hell yeah well again
a very talented kid uh good size runs
well has a good arm um just he hasn’t
played very much he he really is doesn’t
have a lot of experience and he makes
some big plays like this this is an
amazing play where he kind of throws
going backwards puts the ball right on
the money and those are the highlight
plays that that you really like from May
um you know this is one where he he just
doesn’t really finish the play you know
he’s he’s got you know double coverage
here on the slot receiver he’s got Guys
open inside and outside of the and just
throws it into double coverage so uh
again he’s going to need some work in
Reading defenses reading coverages uh
comes with reps kind of he’s quick to
come off the receiver here if he freeze
it right there foxy uh just back a
little bit and a baby foxy foxy like
right here in the middle like
this just a little bit right there like
that’s as open as they’re going to get
in the NFL but I’m just telling you like
they’re not going to get open by like
eight yards in the NFL so just you got
to deliver it in there he’s kind of
quick to bail out of the pocket and you
know he’s going to have to hang in there
a little bit longer I think and find
those re receivers uh this is a really
good throw here he makes uh this is you
know the in Cut here he really drives
the ball that’s a nice that’s a nice
play uh this is a kid that can make all
the throws uh he just needs to be more
consistent um here’s another one where
he’s you know should just stay in a
pocket he doesn’t have any pressure just
stay in a pocket you know read take his
reads and scrambles out early then he
throws the ball late and it almost gets
it picked off so transitioning from a
college quarterback to a pro quarterback
here is you know he just needs some time
and experience here’s a late throw over
here Wiggins picks it off that’s going
to happen it’s going to happen yeah it’s
going to happen it’s going to happen
brout was supposed to come back to the
quarterback I
[Laughter]
heard you know again kind of open
receivers down
here just got to we got to hit them and
again kind of I’d say too quick to
scramble and get out of the pocket of of
all the quarterbacks he was the lowest
rated in the pocket thrower and but you
can see right here he can definitely do
it that’s a good throw against cover two
uh on that corner route behind the
behind the corner freak athlete LED UNC
in rushing two years ago boom and
whenever you think about the overall
Drake May story you’re thinking about
the ceiling that’s possible cuz you even
said not a lot of football he’s played
you golfed with him one round when you
were out in Vegas and you came in next
day like that’s my number one overall
pick we saw his drunk uncle last night
seems like they’re all there Drake’s
going to be a guy that the locker room
immediately immediately day one when he
walks in the locker room he’ll be a
great team guy uh you you mention it at
the top of this draft all these guys are
very very talented how well they be
coached jaob brassette being behind him
being in the same quarterback room with
him that’ll be awesome obviously Mayo
this been his first pick in the new era
I’m excited for him getting his
quarterback but yeah I think this is
honestly up at this part of the draft
probably the biggest wild card in the
draft he can be a Hall of Famer or he
can be a guy that doesn’t work out but
he has all the all the tools he’s like
built if you buil a quarterback on
Madden he’ll be kind of the Prototype
you’ll build it around but uh like Bill
said you got to fix those those those
easy things those got time with can’t
create your own pressure in the league
if you got a pocket you got to take
advantage of that pocket and get the
ball to your athletes but I’m excited
about this pick for the got you
