Drake Maye, the third-overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, had a strong rookie campaign for the Patriots. While he led the team to just two wins in games he played more than one drive, he showed flashes of brilliance and even earned a Pro Bowl selection as a last-minute replacement.
The receivers Maye was throwing to struggled all season, as the team's 2024 draft picks couldn't get much going and none of the veterans took much of a step forward.
