In the NFL, many people are eager to see the New England Patriots.
The New England Patriots are widely anticipated in the NFL community to choose quarterback Drake Maye of the North Carolina Tar Heels with the third overall choice in the 2024 draft.
In a recent interview on “The Rich Eisen Show,” ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky, a retired signal-caller, cautioned that the Patriots ought to be prepared to bench rookie wide out Maye.
Love, of course, entered the NFL when the Green Bay Packers made him a first-round draft pick back in 2020. He spent the bulk of his first three pro seasons serving as a backup behind future Hall of Famer Aaron Rodgers but then guided the 2023 Packers to a playoff berth and a road postseason victory.
Ted Nguyen of The Athletic stated that “as the season went on, Maye’s footwork and decision-making became sloppy, which hurt his production.” The article was published on Tuesday. Maye’s footwork is “a relatively easy fix compared to other flaws,” according to Nguyen as well.
The Patriots may target Joe Flacco of the Cleveland Browns or Jacoby Brissett of the Washington Commanders in free agency, according to reports that surfaced as recently as Monday. Both Brissett and Flacco would serve as a mentor and bridge quarterback for a rookie like Maye, having both previously played for New England under offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt.
