Maye's ADP 44 is too high given regression risk and harder schedule.
Drake MayeQB
Maye is placed in the fade column due to expected regression; despite receiver reinforcements, his 2025 efficiency (8.9 YPA, 72% completion rate) is unlikely to repeat, and the Patriots face a much harder 2026 schedule. At his Yahoo ADP of 44, the source prefers running backs or receivers, noting that quarterback depth makes playing the value game more prudent.

It's no fun to put Drake Maye in the fade column, but we have to be mindful of regression. Even with receiver reinforcements, it's hard to imagine him matching last year's dream efficiency (8.9 YPA, 72% completion rate). The Patriots also have a much harder schedule in 2026. Maye's Yahoo ADP stands at 44, a spot where I'm more likely to take a running back or a receiver.
