Orlovsky: Maye has chance to be ‘unbelievable star' for Patriots originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
The 2024 NFL Draft class was all about the quarterbacks, and six of them were selected in the top 12 picks.
Caleb Williams (No. 1, Bears), Jayden Daniels (No. 2, Commanders), Drake Maye (No. 3, Patriots), Michael Penix Jr. (No. 8, Falcons), J.J. McCarthy (No. 10, Vikings) and Bo Nix (No. 12, Broncos) were taken in the first round. McCarthy won't play this season due to a knee injury, and Penix has mostly been a backup to this point.
