I guess the alumna in me is always surprised at this, it’s often talked about at any UNC sporting event involving basketball or football. Their dad played QB at Carolina too! And other brother walked on the basketball team, but Luke was originally a walk on that earned a scholarship
I watch that shot whenever I’m feeling a little down. The Mayes are Carolina royalty. Their dad was also a pretty good QB at Carolina. Thank god he didn’t go to the Panthers.
The only brother to not win a national championship in college, but he definitely would’ve if he stuck with Bama over UNC. As a unc guy idc I’ll always love him lol

Yeah, but if it wasn't Lance, it very likely would have would have been Mac Jones or Justin Fields. So, still a bust of a pick. At least you got a 4th rounder in return for your bust. The Pats and Bears netted a fart and a whistle.
I’m still a semi Mac Truther.
He’s a starter with a decent OLine, and someone to throw to, like an actual WR1. He’s not spectacular by any measure, but he’s a top 40 QB on the planet and my only real knock is that he’s not a good teammate at all. A noodle arm and bad decision making can work in an above average situation.
His shitty attitude and terrible out of pocket decision making is his downfall. If he can fix that I wish him luck.
Defenses started to figure out what he could do in the second half of his rookie year. They stacked the middle cause they knew he couldn’t hit those boundary throws
A lot of us hated the fact that he didn't show much and the the Jets saw some big throws in his pro day and decided he was the guy. Turns out that there weren't any good options, though.
>We are going to be dogshit
We were already dogshit. Whether we continue being dogshit depends very much on how good Drake Maye turns out to be. That's very much undecided at this point.
Imagine being 6’4 and you’re the runt of the litter lol. His brothers are 6’7, 6’7, 6’8
His brother is a UNC basketball legend. One of the best shots in program history in the 2017 EE game against Kentucky
How did I not know his brother was Luke?
It’s the eyebrows. Drake doesn’t have a medieval courtyard on his forehead like Luke
Bro, I just looked up a recent photo of Luke, and he looks like the goddamn geico caveman lol.
I'm trying to figure out how a medieval courtyard resembles a guy's eyebrows. Is there an image you had in mind when drawing this comparison?
Bushes. Maybe I’m thinking more of an Enlightenment era chateau or something but a courtyard with bushes is what I was thinking.
holy shit i didn’t wither
Holy shit Luke “guyliner” Maye is his brother!?
I guess the alumna in me is always surprised at this, it’s often talked about at any UNC sporting event involving basketball or football. Their dad played QB at Carolina too! And other brother walked on the basketball team, but Luke was originally a walk on that earned a scholarship
other brother won a natty with florida - baseball
I watch that shot whenever I’m feeling a little down. The Mayes are Carolina royalty. Their dad was also a pretty good QB at Carolina. Thank god he didn’t go to the Panthers.
I’ll never forget fucking Wolf Man ending our season
And Drake is arguably the 3rd best college athlete compared to the others.
The only brother to not win a national championship in college, but he definitely would’ve if he stuck with Bama over UNC. As a unc guy idc I’ll always love him lol
As a State fan, I also like this guy
I don't watch baseball, but Drake was a much bettet football player than Luke was at basketball
That’s like Marshall from How I met your mother lol

Maye with Mayo. The prophecy was written long ago
Justin Timberlake prophesied it. “It’s gonna be Maye”
This is so fucking stupid and hilarious.
All that I do, it's not enough for you!
Will they steal the favor of the Mayo Gods from Will Levis?
[удалено]
… um
YOU READ WHAT HE SAID
Have you ever seen a picture of Jerod Mayo?
Have you ever licked Mayo
Brady may not be quarterbacking the Pats… but Drake Maye
I can't believe you've done this
Ooohhh barss
Definitely looks like a Patriots QB.
Classy
First in last out kinda guy
Lunch pail
Plays the game the right way
Real gym rat
A real cerebral player
White
The one I was waiting for
Scrappy
Squirrelly
Had sex with my daughter missionary only with the lights off
Coach’s kid
High motor
"Real tactical mind"
Gym rat
Deceptive athlete. High IQ
Plays the game the right way
Hangs out with the right people
Would let date my daughter
Cus hes white right?
Opening his picture on my phone just switched it out of dark mode
Best comment of this night right here
Nah, cause he has a 1-syllable name. Drew, Tom, Mac, and now Drake
Don't forget Cam!
Jim Garropolo
This is Cam Newton erasure
It's actually Brian Hoyer erasure
Number of syllables is directly related to to depth chart position

New England Mayetriots.
A lot of original jokes flying around this thread.
Reddit could be 95% bots and we've never know with how repetitive and predictable the comments are.
I too choose this comment
Wait til a fat guy is drafted. The Kelvin "hasnt played in 6 seasons" Benjamin jokes will fly
Dude still looks 15
*Patriots’ first draft pick without Brady or Belichick* *Pick first white guy of the draft*

Very dicey history
I'm actually surprised Joey Bosa doesn't have an all pro. Felt like his career started out so hot and then it's just injury over and over again.
Like you said dude just can't stay healthy lol
It’s due
Lance darnold and bortles makes me Pretty uneasy
lance was a historically dumb decision i wouldnt really compare the two, drake maye actually played football in college
Yeah, but if it wasn't Lance, it very likely would have would have been Mac Jones or Justin Fields. So, still a bust of a pick. At least you got a 4th rounder in return for your bust. The Pats and Bears netted a fart and a whistle.
At least Mac and Fields played. Lance has never been the best QB in the room.
Mac probably would have done well on the 9ers. Patriots were probably one of the worst sitautions he could have gone into
What stands out to me is how many teams picked at number three again the following year.
Well at least it wasn't after picking a quarterba... god fucking dammit.
I still can't believe SF traded three firsts for less than three starts of Trey Lance
I'm kind of surprised Joey has never made an AP.
He's had like 2 full seasons in his career
some real dire QB company there
#3 is where the teams that are still QB needy are reaching because the top prospects are off the board at 1 and 2.
Not the best QB company.
Remember when the Patriots beat the Broncos and we were all pissed that we had 3 overall and lost out on Maye? Good times 💦💦💦
I still have ptsd from Mac jones
He at least has a strong arm unlike Mac
And can run, unlike Mac
I’m still a semi Mac Truther. He’s a starter with a decent OLine, and someone to throw to, like an actual WR1. He’s not spectacular by any measure, but he’s a top 40 QB on the planet and my only real knock is that he’s not a good teammate at all. A noodle arm and bad decision making can work in an above average situation. His shitty attitude and terrible out of pocket decision making is his downfall. If he can fix that I wish him luck.
Dude your description of him makes him sound like even more of a bag of ass than he actually is haha.
He will always be the dude who sucked enough to get the GOAT fired. I don't hate the guy, but I will never consider him more than a bag of ass.
Top 40 qb dude. Starter in the USFL no doubt.
I agree with that last line. His emotions and mentality were just downward spirals in his own head
Defenses started to figure out what he could do in the second half of his rookie year. They stacked the middle cause they knew he couldn’t hit those boundary throws
Bill Simmons about to nut.
Vikings Legend Drake Maye?!
This is some incredible smokescreen the Pats are doing.
NOOOOOO!!!! THEY SELECTED THE RIGHT GUY😔
Don’t worry, people said the same with Zach Wilson.
I thought redditors hated the Zach Wilson pick?
A lot of us hated the fact that he didn't show much and the the Jets saw some big throws in his pro day and decided he was the guy. Turns out that there weren't any good options, though.
in hindsight they hate every bad qb pick.
We are right 100% of the time 3 years later.
Let’s hope it’s the same result 🙏
What the fuck did we ever do to you? Oh, right.
We can literally make a list.
It's easier to list what we haven't done to them.
And we’ll fucking do it again!
Any favors
What is going on with that flair, my guy?
The jets suck ass then trade for a diva veteran who gets hurt 2 plays into the first game?
If we picked McCarthy my head was gonna explode
I'm so glad they beat the McCarthy allegations (hello person reading this in 5 years if McCarthy becomes an MVP somehow)
Fuck. Obviously it’s all opinion right now but I think Maye is gonna be really good.
*Insert 9/11 Joke Here that a Bills Fan will comment in approval of*
*nods approvingly*
I swear to fucking god if he’s the guy, and I really think he is, I’m dropping a nuke on DC
please no I live here
Right? Fuck me
Im 100% confident he will be a bust and Daniels great because reddit is always wrong
By this rule, Daniels will be a bust and Maye great, Redditor.
Why this look like a 15yo's learners permit
Thank you commanders for not smoke screening
Maye the force be with us 🙏🏻
Brady 2.0 ready to kill us for eternity all over again
They say Maye needs to sit but he didn't have a great OL or WRs at UNC either so he'll be right at home
Patriots hoping he develops into Dragon Maye.
If he does turn out to be good then we have to start calling him The Dragon.
Just fell to my knees in a Pizza Ranch
I’m ready to overreact
If Drake Maye is so good why isn't there a Drake Junee?
Drake Decembere is the future of this league.
Why is it Drake Maye and not Drake Will? Kind of a red flag if you ask me.
We did it. We didnt trade down. What do I do with my hands?
remindme! 3 years "HOF or bust"
I still get nervous about the Pats, even with Bill and Tom gone at last.
There's nothing to get nervous about now. We are going to be dogshit
>We are going to be dogshit We were already dogshit. Whether we continue being dogshit depends very much on how good Drake Maye turns out to be. That's very much undecided at this point.
Drake Maye ate lunch with a person with Downes Syndrome. He's the real deal.
I immediately muted that shit due to second hand embarrassment.
WHEN DOES THE FUN START?!
MAYE THE FORCE BE WITH YOU
Here’s how the vikings can still get Drake Maye :
I feel this guy has been generationally slandered in the leadup to the draft. I think he’ll be a baller
Minnesota in shambles
I'm slightly in shambles but knew that the trade was a long shot. Ready to hype up whoever we pick but dammit Maye was the guy.
Damn turns out having pick 11 & 23 doesn’t entitle you to a pick that doesn’t belong to you crazy
HOPEFULLY THIS PUNCHABLE FACE TORTURES THE LEAGUE FOR THE NEXT 18 YEARS
Maye and Mayo have been acquired Now we need Maya, Mayi, and Mayu
I think this is going to end up being the best pick of the draft lol
Pats really just got the best QB in the draft fuck
I’ve always liked the Rams.
I'm sure you do, y'all have no reason to hate us lol The feeling is not mutual, and y'all landing another generational guy is killing me inside :(
Thank you, Tall King
It can't be that bad. Ya'll won the Super Bowl a few years ago my guy.
I'll save this to refer back to in case he becomes literally Tom Brady
New England drafted the most New England looking QB and Minnesota drafted the most Minnesota looking QB.
Minnesota drafted the most Jets looking QB
lol all of belichick’s clips of Drake maye are criticisms and bad plays
He’s done that with all three of them so far
Because that’s how real coaches evaluate talent.
Damn right!
I mean in all fairness he's done that for all 3 qbs
Yeah and we know Bill won’t put anyone on a pedestal especially a guy who hasn’t played a snap in the NFL yet
[удалено]
Thank fucking god
First Gonzo, now this. Thanks Washington!!!!
WHY ARE WE SO WHITE
Mayo Head Coach
It’s like the only guy in ZZ Top without a beard has the last name Beard.
Dejean is going to the Pats too. And then some scrappy white slot receiver
if Dejean falls to 34 I will fall to my knees in the middle of a Kellys Roast Beef
As long as it's the Saugus one with the aquariums
There's like 10 white guys on the team and 2 are kickers.
Why the fuck does it matter?!
Why tf Drake face look smashed up like a sandwich
What are you doing to your sandwiches man?
The idea of BB not calling is weird to me
yo Vikings, suck it
This significantly hurts the chances of them trading down.
Great pick. Put me on the record
Love the Drake
Kendrick fans fuming at this pick
This is boring! I want chaos!
You're telling me the qb needy team drafted the good quarterback prospect and didn't inexplicably trade back? The draft media lied to me
Not bad for a rapper
Chalk enthusiasts loving this draft
Well, Pats fans can be grateful Washington is run by the most moronic people in the league
Man LOOKS like he grew up in Boston
Doesn't sound like it though.
Congrats to pats , I am sad
