PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT

Drake Maye is a dynamic quarterback with a strong arm and the ability to make plays both in and out of the pocket. His vision and ability to make off-script plays set him apart. Maye excels in a spread offense that allows him to utilize his mobility and improvisation skills. He is also capable of fitting into a pro-style system, thanks to his pocket awareness and progression reading. His play style is reminiscent of a mix between Patrick Mahomes for his off-script abilities and Joe Burrow for his pocket poise and accuracy.

CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS

A player expected to become a top-tier starter within their first few years. They possess strong physical tools and good technical skills but may have some limitations in their game. With development, they can reach near-elite levels and provide consistent impact at their position.
