Mike Dussault, Patriots.com: Maye was the easy and obvious pick, filling a huge need with a high-ceiling player who has all the traits necessary to be a top tier NFL quarterback. He'll probably need a bit of time to get up to speed but the Patriots now have a key piece in place as they go about their rebuild.

Evan Lazar, Patriots.com: It was always Maye.

Trey Wingo, NFL Analyst: Drake Maye goes to New England. 3 QBs at the start of the draft. The problem is…..there is literally no offensive talent around him. Patriots have to now get him weapons to work with or New England will be in the same situation
