The New England Patriots met with North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis back last month. They also sent a large contingent to his Pro Day last week.

The Patriots own the No. 3 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft and very much need a franchise quarterback. Maye is in the top-tier of QB prospects in this draft class, a group that includes USC's Caleb Williams, LSU's Jayden Daniels and maybe even Michigan's J.J. McCarthy.
