Drake Maye is just the next college quarterback for the NFL to miss on. His film is all over the place, and could lead to a team hitting the lottery, or firing everybody in their front office. Game Film is incredibly subjective, which is why the NFL constantly misevaluates college quarterbacks coming out of the draft, and Maye could easily be that next misevaluation. What are his strengths? His weaknesses? And what might the NFL be missing on his tape? This week’s episode uses the coaches all 22 to analyze University of North Carolina’s Quarterback Drake Maye as he prepares for the 2024 NFL draft.

Hi everybody, thank you so so much for another incredible season. I usually take a week off after the season, but decided to push it back a bit cause I was so excited to dive into this draft. I appreciate you all helping me grow the channel to where it is, and I can’t wait to come back in 2 weeks and keep things rocking. Cheers to y’all, I couldn’t do it without each and every one of you! #CTESPN 👊

Drake is another Herbert/Love a team like the redskins will destroy and ruin him like they did Howell(Seahawks fleeced them). But a team like the Patriots will unlock everything in him and could very well be back to a contender sooner than later. Jayden will be a massive bust and injury prone with the redskins I guarantee that he takes hits no QB should and is lighter than Bust Young.

It seems to me that the hardest part about evaluating a quarterback, is not evaluating his situation, but reducing all the variables in his situation, down to just what the player was able to control.

I have a perfect example of this because not only are those variables there for me to link videos to, but every analyst prefers to continue overlooking them. So the measurables are there, readily available yet everyone avoids looking at 'em? Yeah. Here we go. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hdmGpZaVtrO5qps.html is one of a series made by someone obsessed with a team, so they try to take into account the variables making their QB look bad. A perfect example is how the Bears' o-line is rated around mid-level in protecting the run. What even he fails to point out though is that Every Positive Run is added to the o-line's production. Even if that run is the end result of busted pass coverage. Fields is elevating his o-line every time he evades sacks & they get the credit. At 22:45 of kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fM-ZfpViu-Ctj6M.html we see why he needs to. One player smashes into his own teammate avoiding his own block & taking another off of his. While this isn't typical, the LT simply ignoring the existence of edge rushers occurs Every Game. So the Bears regularly *force* Fields to have to run on passing plays. Through _their play-calling._ This was evident when, after he suddenly started doing what appeared to eb Spacing Out & not throwing to open receivers. Everyone knew what was up the instant the Bears didn't take him into concussion protocol: the only possible way they could have _known_ Fields wasn't concussed was if he was executing the plays As Called. Fan reaction confirmed this. Everyone said that this was the team Simplifying The Offense for Fields. So Everyone At First Acknowledged That this was deliberate play-calling. Then when people realized that this narrative implicated the Bears' coaching in deliberately sabotaging Fields, this narrative was dropped. & while another false one replaced it, the only way to Never Admit We Saw It was to never look at the play-calling again. So everyone refuses to. Alex here included. & what was that second narrative? "Fields can't read defenses." Well what do you know? _That_ one was debunked kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h9uYiMV6uNTWaKc.html before he ever took a snap in the NFL. This _exacerbates_ people's desire to turn a blind eye. See, this all *_required that_* You The Fans consciously turn a blind eye to the play-calling in regards to fields. As a result, y'all feel a twinge of guilt by looking at it in regards to any QB. So you all avoid it repeatedly so as not to trigger that twinge. Good luck assessing anyone while avoiding going through all the steps necessary to do so.

Tony Romo, Kurt Warner, Matt Hasselbeck, Marc Bulger, Mark Brunell and Jeff Garcia in the 90s/00s alone. It just shows NFL puts far too much stock into hype, alum and potential instead of fundamentals like footwork, anticipation and reading coverages. Which is why we ended up with guys like Zach Wilson, Trey lance, Jamarcus Russell and Matt leinart who couldn’t do any of those fundamental stuff.

My grandfather was a major league scout and statistician. He felt like the thing scouts missed on was what happened when you put a pitcher into a cold/windy situation. So many players looked great in California / Florida weather and they got the yips when they had to face the elements and that turned into them spiraling with mixed confidence for years. You have to scout players that have experience playing well in your elements.

@@aidantoogood6627 I think playing on the bench allowed Rodgers to ease in and acclimate himself to the territory. Rodgers also played in the Bay Area which has wind and chilly weather. He had games against Oregon, Washington, Colorado in college that gave him some prep work for the NFL. (Wind & Wind Chill are the biggest factors imho ) The problem is when you are seen as a Top 10 pick, dominate in SEC play, and play in year 1 ... just having a 4 week stretch of not throwing well in windy/cold games can really spiral into a dark period.

Green Bay does it right. I think a lot of these recent “busts” were just victims of not having the opportunity to learn as a back up. Most college QBs are lucky to play two full seasons before entering the NFL and too often they’re expected to start and make an impact, right away. Also, if you don’t build the proper offense around your QB or if you scrimp on your defense, to pay your QB, you can’t then place all the expectations on one player. The Lions have built a team that complements Goff and doesn’t break the bank.

I hope this young man goes to a place where he can refine and develop. He’s got the talent, and the size. He’s like a bigger Zach Wilson and I don’t mean that as an insult by any means. I know Zach Wilson is a popular punching bag, but as someone who watched him at BYU and then his first NFL games, he had/has the game to be a really good QB. People forget that his first NFL game was a near comeback with two touchdowns, a 2pt scamper, and that was all after being absolutely murdered on at least 2 of what may have been 6 sacks… Give Maye some patience and coach up his footwork, and he could be awesome.

The biggest reason’s I think the NFL gets it wrong a lot with QB’s is because they overvalue athleticism and the plays that QB’s in college actually make. The main reason I think is they don’t take into account the surrounding talent on said QB’s team in college, the style of offense and the absolute main factor is reps of throwing the ball in college and years of starting experience in college. I’ve noticed a trend with these QB’s that have hit is they all throw over 800+ attempts in college and have 3 years of starting experience in which they improve over every season and there isn’t some anomaly season. The biggest thing I look at is from the first year they start I look for only the flaws/weakness and mechanics in the QB and then go to the next season and see if they fixed any of them and so on. To the reps part about QB’s having 800+ attempts in college Josh Allen is the only outlier in that in which he had under 800 attempts. Mahomes 1,349, Purdy 1,467, Hurts 1,047, Herbert 1,239, Stroud 830, Burrow 945 now it’s not an exact science of course but it’s a pretty good baseline I use. A lot of these QB’s have massive years just before they get drafted and they bust in the NFL and fans go wtf how did he bust and I think it comes down to not alot of consistent improvement year over year with these prospects and you get an anomaly year of great success. It’s one of the main reasons I’m completely sold on Caleb Williams being that guy his mental IQ is absurd for football and he works hard to improve every season along with every game. I’ve watched him since Oklahoma and he never made the same bad play twice within a game, week, month and year again and he battled so much adversity with his all time awful defense and trying to be perfect every single play. His Notre Dame game everyone likes to use to shit on him and say he’s bad or will bust etc was the testament of everything he is and will be he threw 3 picks in the 1st half all were different throws and reads and in the 2nd half he came out and balled and his WR’s dropped and fumbled a lot and he kept battling and didn’t let it bother him at all. His 1st pick was a overthrow to a MOF seam route to the TE over the LB and underneath the safety while he was under pressure later on in that game he threw that same exact ball and hit it.

Footwork is the biggest change mahomes made too. He could’ve never played the quick release quick read game he’s played the last two years his first two years. His short range accuracy was suspect. He had happy feet nonstop every game. With coaching he quieted that aspect down and became a top 5 all time(probably already #3 imo) and can hit people at every level. Now he plays like Brady. So it’s definitely possible for maye.

Caleb has BUST written all over him. - 5 consecutive USC QB Busts after Carson Palmer. - Played in pass-happy No-defense Pac-12. - Undersized at 6’1”, which matters a lot more in NFL than college - Basic, simplistic, QB-friendly Lincoln Riley spread offense that inflates QB production and doesn’t translate to NFL - Known for his out-of-structure, backyard football plays. Playing in-structure is not good, which doesn’t bode well for the NFL. - Squeaky clean pockets from the shotgun with a deep secure firm pocket up the middle, tons of room to step up. His NFL pockets will be nothing like his USC pockets. - The Chicago Bears franchise has NEVER produced a Franchise QB, ever. This has all the makings of an epic, all-time Bust.

That is the trait that made Tom Brady successful, and it's a trait that makes the OL seem better than they are. Plus it demonstrates an understanding of what the play is trying to accomplish, and an understanding of what the defense is doing.

The 3 Lion example is poor play design. 3 slants out of that formation with all of them cutting at the same time, at the same angle. It’d be easier for the QB to read, if the innermost WR did a 1-step slant that was super shallow. These old-school West Coast concepts need to be updated. Everyone from Kurt Warner to Brett Koleman has pointed this out.

Big deal is the system and what they are coached to do. Justin Herbert was clearly a big strong and mobile dude. But Mario Crystoball didn't trust him to do anything but screens and bootlegs 95% of the time. Vs Zach Wilson who looked like an elite pocket movement and reader of defenses lost all his confidence and couldn't handle the speed of the game or any any any pressure at all. It sometimes is a lottery

Maybe there's something there with Herbert. Two different OC coached him and came up with the same answer: give him a bunch of curls. They both did not implement a lot of concepts that explore different depths of the field and different route timings. Instead, it was a bunch of curls in the same depth of the field, don't think just throw the guy who's open. Predictable. Maybe is the lack of running threat, maybe it's bad pass protection. But maybe there's some limitation in Herbert too. I'm just saying it's weird two different coaches thought this was the most productive system they could implement.

Whether it gets better depends, but his lack of accuracy on many throws, poor footwork, and a seemingly poor understanding of reading leverages and defenses pre and post snap concerns me. He makes great throws but it seems almost random when it happens. I think I'd put both JJ and Michael Penix above him.

Maye had a TD from last year (I wish I could remember the game) where he drifts to his right on the dropback to set up what I believe was a fade ball. One of my buddies I was watching him with started losing it because he hates when QBs bail from clean pockets. What my buddy missed was that it was a zero blitz and UNC was in empty. Maye knew this and slid right, throwing a clean ball from a great base and improved throw angle. I will also say that UNC changed OCs prior to this past season. His original OC was Phil Longo, who is known for not really emphasizing footwork. He wants his guy playing loose and reactive. The new OC (blanking on his name) ran a really stale and static offense this year. Maye had a weak OL and until Tez was granted elgibility, the WR room was not good. I think Maye has some stuff to work on, but I think he can fix most of his "issues" within his first season, if not many of them during Training Camp.

Read some Mark Schofield, he can break that stuff down so easy that it's hard to forget!

One of the biggest problems is quality practice time in the pros. OTA’S and camp is not real game experience. Preseason in water down practice. A incoming quarterback may face other quarterbacks who won’t be helpful. The pressure to win is crazy and the rookie contract plays into it. Then college ball is seven on seven passing. So many ways to fail. The NFL is truly the best of the best. Quarterback wash outs have always been high. Its the speed of the game. 2.5 seconds to read the defense and find your progressions. Tight windows. A different ball then college. Camp is not the old two a days. Quarterbacks don’t get three to five years to sit behind the starter. Top quarterbacks don’t want the next quarterback in the room. Teams who are drafting high are not good so you put a rookie quarterback in a bad situation. All lead to the failure rate. A lot of the top quarterbacks drafted have talent its what happens next. Teams take a chance on the skill and hope to get it right.

It's hard to predict how people react to the next level. I also wonder how much of it is on the player, vs the team and situation the player lands. Josh Allen had all the hallmarks of a horrible bust. Bad completion %, bad accuracy overall, mistakes, relatively weak competition. His first year looked like he'd be just another one of those. His next year was better. His third year and beyond, he's inside the top 10 and putting up better basic and advanced stats against professional players than he did in college against players with no professional future. He didn't just get better, he got a LOT better. What makes this so hard to predict is that we don't know how much each factor matters. Most players in the NFL try pretty hard. It's easy to figure out while Jamarcus Russell failed. But for many of them, you don't hear that they cashed their check and walked. They're actually trying, and in many cases failing. Maybe the NFL requires something college doesn't test (faster speed, tighter windows, more complexity etc) that some people just can't handle. Maybe the cold reality is that there just aren't 32 good or even relatively decent team situations for a QB per year. Maybe it's a combination of those and more (probably). Regardless, we've observed QBs that looked good with all types of strengths succeed in the pros...and we've seen the same skillsets fail. Nobody has yet come up with a predictive model and applied it to previous draft classes to reliably pick good future starters. Although, teams rarely turn that microscrope onto themselves...and if a coaching situation is bad, how to evaluate what can be done to make it good? It's not like you can just rip the entire staff away from another team fully intact and get that other team's players to give advice from veterans for your guy.

You sound like you were on of those dudes who overrated how 'raw' Allen was coming out of college. Sure he had the propensity of missing the side of the barn throwing from 60 yards out. But the fact he was throwing it like a rocket from that range is still a very unique thing. His film certainly had a handful of *'if he can fix this at the pro level, he'd be a legit top 3 QB in the NFL'* kind of situations. Which I think people who dive and study college prospect tape never realistically look into that kind of strong situational metric along with everything else. At worse the Bills would still give Allen the heavy consideration of an extension just by his 2nd year production alone. Especially if another way to help progression was just to give him a legit WR1 who can catch those 60 yrd bombs and win on isolation.

Bad orgs rarely ever have a Brady type in their own draft board anyway. Since they are too busy trying make bad moves in the draft to shore up their lackluster roster. Competent teams with their team building strats have their bases covered enough and may have a specialty in developing a specific talent that they hit pay dirt after picking so often. I'm not surprised Purdy ended up in the Niners because his skillset is exactly someone that Kyle Shanahan would use as a backup QB anyway. He's just happens to be a better version of every Jimmy G, Nick Mullens, CJ Beathard type of guy Kyle has tried to take a chance at in past years.

Very true. Many top college qbs were considered busts until they moved to a good organization and won a super bowl. Plunkett, Doug Williams, Steve Young. Brady was developed over many years, his big passing breakout came in 2007, his 7th year. In 2001, he was asked to do very little and he did it very well and they won a sb. He did his part, but defense and special were huge for the Pats that year. It was Bledsoe and special teams winning the AFC championship game and the defense beat the Rams. Brady did his part moving them for the winning field goal, but before that the Pats offense did almost nothing in that sb. It takes a great organization to win, even more important than the qb.

I think the toughest part of evaluating QBs is the cerebral aspect. It's tough to know how a QB prepares for a game and how well he can stay poised under pressure to execute that gameplan. Arm talent and speed are what scouts salivate over but they whiff more than they hit. Trey Lance, Justin Fields, and Zach Wilson got all that hype but I never understood why people loved Lance or Fields. Sure, they were tempted by the speed but reading defenses, throwing accurately, and commanding the offense is what good QBs do. And to think the best QBs to do it were often overlooked. Manning didn't get the celebrity treatment Leaf got even though he was picked 1 overall. Brady, you already know. Brees, you already know. Purdy is the latest in that category. Heck, Mahomes was overshadowed by Deshaun AND Alex Smith when he got drafted. So aside from Andrew Luck, I haven't seen scouts hit on their hype at all

I think some of the plays your not taking into account other factors. The missed touchdown against Duke was because his o lineman wiffed so badly he was moving out of his own linemans way to block the defnder coming around the edge. When he made that little jump cut before throwing. Also he was in a new offense so alot of times him and his receievers werent on the same page. When you run option routes you and your reciever have to read the coverage the same way. He also did not have the greatest O line or reciever play. His best weapon missed games due to NCAA eligibility. I suggest you go back and watch the 2022 tape and see how comfortable and confident he looks in that offense. I think its better that he didnt have a ton of time to throw or weapons around him because in the NFL the talent gap is much smaller. For instance Brock pury looked like a mych worse qb when there was no CMC, no Trent Williams, No deebo. He still had Aiyuk, kittle, and a legit running game around him in that time. Most qbs would look good in his system especially since he played in a similar one in college. Mayes situation is one that is more typical to an NFL one. 1 talented reciever, avreage o line, good running back. Id rathe have a guy like that than a Jayden Daniels type dude who had everything come easy with his O line, weapons, and good play calling.

Lamar being a pocket passer has always been a thing even back in his college days. Thing is he arrived with the Ravens with an offensive staff under Greg Roman who only saw Lamar as a 3rd running back. Along with the GM not surrounding Lamar with receiver talent to grow as a passer. If anything Harbaugh should have replaced Roman by 2019 after Lamar's MVP performance season and actually tried finding an OC who wants to open the field up like Monken did last season. Along with getting better WR talent. Because last season Lamar was still got to do his running stuff in spread formations and with a talent like Zay Jones who was arguably his best safety blanket he's ever had as a receiver outside of Andrews.

Here's one big reason, those making the final decision don't actually watch college football. Let's look at JJ McCarthy, the day after his college career finished he was universally seen as late day 2 pick AT BEST, this is the evaluation given by those that actually watched him play football as it happened. Now he's risen to maybe the 3rd or 4th overall pick! This meteoric rise is based on some interviews, a couple of workouts and metric sh*t ton of hype, and not on how he actually plays football. If he turns out to be a mediocre starter or a career back up, he'll be considered a huge bust. But in reality he'd just ended up being exactly what those evaluators who actually watched him play said he'd be. This is a big reason so many players get over (and under) drafted. Another example, CJ Stroud Vs Bryce Young. That Stroud turned out to be much, much better than Young wasn't a surprise to some of us. That Young had some major issues that would be hard to get rid of also wasn't a surprise (like that he does poorly under pressure). But David Tepper fell for the hype, fell for what his own eyes seen (the combine, pro day and some interviews his team did) instead of trusting those that watch these two play all of their games.

Media boards aren't real. The teams have had grades on every QB since a year ago, and it doesn't really change unless a guy shows something new. Film can show roughly how fast, strong, flexible, etc. every prospect is. Interviews might be the last big impact, but it's mostly in terms of clearing up film and establishing if a player's even interested.

Bryce Young arguably was the best player on offense roster where none of his receivers could separate and Frank Reich's play calling was super fraudulent with inside zone runs with highly paid RB Miles Sanders. It doesn't help Young is not a hyper athlete either since he wasn't used to out maneuvering pro level EDGE players as one of the guys out of The Shire. Meanwhile Stroud had a coaching staff who knew how to use modern principles to problem solve shit. Sadly Pierce didn't work out with the run scheme but Singletary did. Plus his main receiver targets could separate by themselves in tall ass Nico Collins and speedster Tank Dell. Everyone else could also get schemed to get opened. Defense was also stout because DeMeco is that good of a coach. Stroud clearly had much more help which magnified the performance he could consistently put out weekly even against high variance moments like his entire O-line being injured for the first 8 weeks.

It does not matter how good a QB is in college if they end up on a team with no O-line, running game, or receiving talent they will fail. It can be a good evaluation with a bad situation. See Bryce Young or Tim Coach.

It's true. You need to be a certain height weight and comp percentage. True. But if you don't get the one who fits where you're located, the coaches you have, desire, photographic memory. Your percentage is so low. It's literally a waste of money. Who knows. Maybe your team needs the tax write-off.

I found this to be an incredible video. Well done, brother. When your team is in the QB market and you watch and read everything you can when it comes to the QBs in the draft, it becomes incredibly apparent that 2 people see the same play differently. Now, I do want to say something that may be controversial, but shouldn’t be. I don’t think people take their gut feelings into consideration enough when scouting. Drake Maye *looks* like what a successful NFL QB is. Tall. Thickly Built. Big arm. Whip smart. Good pocket movement. Very good college production. Good from the start. Big time throws. Throws over the middle of the field. Those are all hallmarks of good NFL QBs over the last 50 years. 6’4 190 pounds, runs a 4.4, takes 4 years to become draftable, takes massive hits that someone his size can’t take, and get sacked way more than anyone should, that guy is not the type of guy that makes it in the NFL.

From my perspective, the most difficult attribute to coach is mental. A Player who does not have a mature mindset typically plays poorly in the NFL.

Mental can come in different ways too. Zach Wilson's mental always had him in hero mode. Yet Jets fans who were nut hugging him were quicker to blame when competent staff was doing the overall offense 'right'. Mike LaFleur as an OC runs the basic bitch wide zone run that schemes underneath targets open against the defense. Went like clockwork when the run game was a threat. But Wilson could never see those schemed guys who were always designed to be open underneath. Yet he could 'see' a high percentage pass which is a bubble screen. And especially when he scrambles the wrong way to invite more pressure to him, he's willing to run to the sideline and heave the deep ball cuz he 'saw' Corey Davis downfield.

I’m pretty convinced that you can teach a QB to read defenses, if he has a brain, but you can’t teach arm talent, at least by the time a guy is in his early 20s. Once he hits that age if he has really flawed mechanics or he has a mediocre-at-best arm it’s probably not fixable. I think that Will Levis might be a good example. Everyone complained he threw some stupid picks but if you look at his throwing ability you say, “Wow.” Brock Purdy is a bit of an outlier because he doesn’t have a great arm but if you look at his skillset in total, Brock is really good. It’s probably why Brock was picked way later than he should’ve been. I just watched part of the Pro Day for the guy I think from Michigan (?) and I think he might be underrated. J.J. something or other. But he reminds me a bit of Joe Burrow and he can throw the football, even though I think he has a bit of a long-winded windup.

Saw a similar comment, but QB's from big colleges with all day to throw, you are being deceived. I would rather the guy who made his team better and half the time was running for his life. Even if at a smaller school.

I believe what you are saying makes sense. Post 2017 draft, Brett Kollmann gave the Chiefs a lot of crap for selecting Patrick Mahomes. In 2018, he made a video describing what he missed in his evaluations. Basically, he did not fully consider how a QB performed when things didn't go right... when "was running for his life".

not banning the Bears from draft Qbs in round 1 is a big part of the issue.. ngl pa needs to step in and protect players and ban them from doing this. sooner the better, so many traits guys ruins and at needless risk of injury because the Bears are not even an NFL franchise.. maybe dissolve the JETS and BEARs in general tbh
