NextImg:What Bill Belichick had to say about new Patriots QB Drake Maye

For the first time in 24 years, Bill Belichick presented his unbridled thoughts publicly about a Patriots draft pick.

The former Patriots head coach, appearing on ESPN+’s “The Pat McAfee Show Draft Spectacular,” immediately broke down the pick on air.

“Drake compares himself a lot to Josh Allen. … We’ll see about that. I think there are some comparisons with size and athleticism, but Josh Allen is a pretty special player,” Belichick said on air. “A very talented kid. Good size, runs well, has a good arm. Just he hasn’t played very much. He really doesn’t have a lot of experience. He makes some big plays. … He’s gonna need some work in reading defenses, reading coverages. …

“He’s kind of quick to bail out of the pocket. He’s gonna have to hang in there a little bit longer to find those receivers. … This is a kid who can make all of the throws. He just needs to be more consistent. … Transitioning from a college quarterback to a pro quarterback, he’s just going to need some time and experience.”

Belichick also broke down plays on Maye, showing his strengths and weaknesses, while giving his thoughts on the Patriots new quarterback.
