Whether you like Maye more than Burrow or vice versa, it's still an expensive selection for a QB. The addition of A.J. Brown to the Patriots and Maye's strong 2025 performance will justify the selection to many, but Seattle exposed Maye in the Super Bowl, and the team adding Romeo Doubs at the likely expense of Kayshon Boutte and Stefon Diggs is a net decline for the corps.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

Maye overpriced at pick 60; Seattle exposed him; Patriots WR corps declining.

JJ Zachariason criticizes Drake Maye as an expensive QB selection at pick 60, noting that while the addition of A.J. Brown and Maye's strong 2025 performance may justify the pick to many, Seattle exposed Maye in the Super Bowl. The Patriots' addition of Romeo Doubs at the likely expense of Kayshon Boutte and Stefon Diggs represents a net decline for the receiver corps, limiting Maye's upside.
