2025 Fantasy Outlook
Maye, the third pick in the 2024 Draft, began last season behind Jacoby Brissett but took over the starting job for good by Week 6. He fought through knee and hand injuries and a concussion, plus he struggled with interceptions (3.0 INT percentage, seventh-highest), but overall he did enough to inspire much hope among the Patriots faithful. Maye’s 72.8 on-target percentage ranked 18th, and his 66.6 completion percentage was 13th. That was built on a lot of short passes, though. His average target depth was 7.3 yards (23rd), with nearly 70 percent of his attempts going less than 10 yards downfield. It’s perhaps surprising Maye’s strong arm wasn’t put to better use, but the Patriots lacked downfield weapons -- well, any weapons -- and the coaching staff was so ineffective that it got flushed after just one season. Proven offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, back in New England for the third time, should greatly benefit Maye, and the Patriots upgraded their roster with free agents WR Stefon Diggs (assuming he’s healthy after an ACL injury last year), RT Morgan Moses and C Garrett Bradbury. They then drafted LT Will Campbell (fourth overall), RB TreVeyon Henderson (38th) and WR Kyle Williams (69th). The latter’s 4.4 speed may give Maye the deep threat he lacked last year. Maye also has good wheels (7.8 YPC on 54 rushes) and loves to scramble, which may be his ticket to establishing value in single-QB leagues. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Signed a four-year, $36.64 million contract with the Patriots in May of 2024.
Wins sloppy playoff debut
Maye completed 17 of 29 passes for 268 yards, one touchdown and one interception while rushing 10 times for 66 yards in Sunday's 16-3 wild-card game win over the Chargers. He also fumbled twice, losing one.
ANALYSIS
Neither team scored a touchdown in the first half, though the Patriots took a 6-3 lead into the break after the defense bailed Maye out with a fourth-down stop by the goal line following his first-quarter interception. Maye's rough start extended into the third quarter, when he lost a fumble after the Patriots had worked their way into the red zone, but New England's defense continued to carry the team until Maye's 28-yard touchdown pass to Hunter Henry extended the lead to 16-3 with 9:45 remaining to provide a fourth-quarter cushion. The Patriots have already beaten as many winning teams in the playoffs as they did the entire regular season, and they will remain at home in the AFC divisional round against either the Texans or Steelers.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Patriots made Maye the third overall pick in this year’s draft, hoping he’s the QB of the future that Mac Jones failed to be. Jones, the 15th overall pick in 2021, was traded in March to Jacksonville. Maye will compete for the starting job with free-agent acquisition Jacoby Brissett. Even if Maye isn’t the Week 1 starter, he likely will be under center at some point. At 6-4, 223, Maye has prototypical size, with a strong and talented arm that can both attack defenses deep and slip balls into tight windows. Scouts praised his vision and anticipation, and he’s an athletic dual threat who rushed for 1,147 yards and 16 TDs his last two years at North Carolina. Maye is a bit of a gunslinger, prone to ill-advised passes, and inconsistent mechanics and poor footwork at times hurt his accuracy, especially on routine short throws. But the Patriots have time to develop that while Brissett handles QB duty. The bigger issue is a lack of playmakers. The WR depth chart is topped by Kendrick Borne, who is coming off an ACL injury, and Demario Douglas, a 2023 sixth-round pick who failed to score last season. Second-round rookie Ja’Lynn Polk might already be the best wide receiver, and tight end Hunter Henry could be the No. 2 target. Maye, however, at least gives the Patriots hope in the post-Belichick era.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Named Second-Team All-Pro
Maye was selected a Second-Team All-Pro for the 2025 season Saturday, Rob Maaddi of the Associated Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Maye earned 18 of 50 first-place votes from media members that make up the national panel for the All-Pro selection, with Matthew Stafford earning First-Team honors thanks to his 31 first-place votes. Maye and Stafford were neck-and-neck in the MVP race toward the tail end of the season, and while the former did not earn a spot on the First-Team All-Pro, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site notes that Josh Allen won the MVP in 2024 despite being named to the Second-Team that year behind Lamar Jackson. Maye finished the 2025 regular season as the league leader in completion percentage and yards per passing attempt and finished third and fourth in passing touchdowns and passing yards, respectively.
