QB Drake Maye, NE (4 Viewers)

I’m considering him unbenchable but I just need another few games for him to prove himself.

#sarcasmTest
 
Reminds me of Herbert’s poise out there with the same rocket arm and with even more mobility, yet fewer receiving options. Great surrounding support system for Maye, so we’ll see if he can do it in the playoffs where Herbert hasn’t.

Does anyone else feel like he is overrated in fantasy? Only above 20 points in 1 of the last 5 games and even then only barely. 22 rushing yards or less in the last 5, no rushing tds since week 4.

Seems like since he started becoming more heralded he stopped wanting to run which is pretty common. Without rushing upside he is throwing to mostly bums regardless of what his mvp odds are,which is not ideal.

For the year he has .3 less total points than dak.

Not exactly a bad thing to be in the same area as Dak, those are both top-5 fantasy QBs.

Maye is Mr. Consistent in a year where consistency is few and far between. He's top-5 in every passing category, and while his running has slowed, its not like he's Stafford or Goff where its nothing.

I can't think of 5 QBs I'd rather have for the fantasy playoffs. Hell, I'm not entirely sure I'd prefer anyone other than Josh Allen. Maybe Dak, as long as Lamb is good to go? Maybe Hurts with LV/Was in weeks 15-16? That's about it, especially with Mahomes running out of OL.

I think for everyone except Josh Allen, QB rush yards are going to be variable on a week-to-week basis. With an extra game in hand, Maye has 90 fewer rush yards than Allen (aka 9 fantasy points).

Pats have played a very soft schedule, and Maye basically hasn't needed to run. Likewise, they aren't playing high scoring competitive second halves in terms of racking up passing stats. I wouldn't worry about his point totals for keeper/dynasty purposes.
 
Just hoping he's the most rested and most prepared that he'll be all season for the week 15 matchup. Need him then most.

Personally I would rather have mahomes and hurts for sure, and obviously Allen. Burrow, dak, Daniels, maye, dart, brisset, stafford all seem pretty comparable to me

Given that Allen has 11 rushing touchdowns vs Mayes 2 I struggle to see how they are comparable

Only Allen and Stafford for me. Hurts probably but I hate rooting for him

Allen has the most QB rushing TD in the history of the NFL. Not sure asking/hoping Maye to reach that standard is how we should evaluate here?
 
1 pt after half time. This is the exact crap I was complaining about a few weeks ago and it cost NE a winnable game. They got way too conservative when they were up 21-0.
