From the article

Maye peaked as high as 6 on the list last year, but his playoff performance has to ding him a little. He was certainly a bum slayer off that weak schedule, but tougher opponents made him look a lot more pedestrian.

Negative signalProjection

Maye ranked #9 QB, down from #6 due to weak playoff performance.

Ranked #9 in 2026 preseason QB rankings, down from a peak of #6 last year. Declan Doyle notes his playoff performance dinged his ranking; he was a bum slayer off a weak schedule, but tougher opponents made him look pedestrian (season opener performance not yet factored in).
