The Patriots thought they had their quarterback of the future in Mac Jones after taking him 15th overall in 2021 but after two years of regression, they moved on from him this off-season, trading him to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Now comes a new opportunity to truly find Tom Brady’s heir apparent and the next great quarterback in franchise history. It is a good year to be picking at the top…
Photo by Grant Halverson/Getty Images Maye originally committed to Alabama but then chose to follow his father and brother’s lead and attend the University of North Carolina where he started 26 of 30 games and threw for 8,018 yards and 63 touchdown passes. He had a better season in 2022 under former offensive coordinator Phil Longo who left after the season to join Luke Fickell’s staff at Wisconsin. Maye was…
Daniels has had quite an interesting path to the NFL. He was in college for five years starting with his time at Arizona State. He played with the Sun Devils from 2019 to 2021. He then transferred to LSU where he played well in 2022 and burst into the scene last season. He won the Heisman Trophy completing 66.3 percent of his passes for 3,812 yards, 40 touchdown passes and…

Polk was a favorite among coaches and his teammates. A hard worker who excels to making plays at all three levels of the field. Burst onto the scene the last two years catching 110 passes for 1,853 yards and 15 touchdowns. Polk is not an elite level athlete by any means but he has good hands, runs great routes and knows how to get on the same page with his…

It’s all been talked to death and we’ll finally know the future of the franchise in just over 24 hours. In the mean time, it is pretty crazy to sit back and think about how long this fan base got to go without having to worry about screwing up a Top…
Baker transferred to UCF from Alabama after the 2021 season. One of the most productive receivers in the country the past two years. Baker caught 108 passes for 1,935 yards and 12 touchdowns. Baker finished first team All Big-12 for his efforts. Here is my scouting report on Javon Baker. Javon Baker, WR, 6-1 202, UCF Hands: Baker has strong hands. Does a good job of catching the ball away…
Note: We wanted to create a new feature that honored the history of the high school game a little. This is a snapshot of MIAA play in 2000, and while a lot of that info is hard to access, we still remember a good amount of it. So here’s an attempt to capture those old glories. If you have any additional information from other years, it is welcome. Here is…
It’s finally here. The NFL Draft is upon us, and the Patriots are facing their most consequential draft in the past 30-years. Bill Belichick is gone, there is a hole at quarterback and the future of the entire offense is uncertain. With those things in mind, I took a quarterback of the future, several offensive pieces and injected additional youth into an already good defense. Round 1, Pick 3: Drake…
The 2024 quarterback is one of the most highly scrutinized classes in years. After a recent string of classes that have either underachieved or flopped, hopes are high for this group. Now I’m not one for comps but I do think this class reminds me a lot of the 2004 class which featured Ben Roethlisberger, Eli Manning, Philip Rivers and J.P Losman. Three of the four quarterbacks in that draft…
