I've got Drake May at 29th. Like I've got him hugged up right next to Josh Allen... if the Patriots are forced to just push the pedal to the metal, Drake may could just absolutely crush.

Positive signalProjection

Drake May is ranked QB2 overall (29th overall) and could compete with Josh Allen for QB1 this year due to upgraded receiving options including AJ Brown and Romeo Dobbs, plus a better schedule that may force the Patriots to maintain offensive pressure throughout games.
