The New England Patriots got started on grooming No. 3 overall pick Drake Maye this past weekend at rookie minicamp.
First-year head coach Jerod Mayo and the Patriots are making sure there aren’t too many cooks in the kitchen when it comes to Maye’s development. To prevent that, they are handing the brunt of the responsibility of coaching up Maye to new offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt.
That’s a decision former Patriots quarterback Drew Bledsoe is fully on board with.
Bledsoe got to know Van Pelt during their time playing together with the Buffalo Bills and Bledsoe believes Maye is in very good hands.
