New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye will get his first taste of December football in Orchard Park during Sunday's divisional matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Maye is coming off a solid game against the Arizona Cardinals in which he registered 202 passing yards, 14 rushing yards, two total touchdowns, and one interception. While the No. 3 pick has been prone to turnovers this year, last Sunday's interception wasn't his fault as a well-placed pass tipped off his receiver's hand and into the arms of a Cardinals. Moving forward, Maye continues to rank just outside the top 12 fantasy quarterbacks. This week's game has a potential high-scoring factor if the Bills take an early lead and force the Patriots to throw the football while playing from behind. However, the Patriots have a shown a reliance on the rushing attack this year, so it's possible that New England's coaching staff looks to shorten the game by putting the ball in the hands of Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson more often. Maye's rushing upside is capped against a Bills defense allowing the fewest rushing attempts and 10th-fewest rushing yards to opposing quarterbacks in 2024, but he should still make an impact through the air. Maye is worth starting in two-quarterback leagues, as well as leagues with at least 14 teams.

Drake Maye Impressive In Week 15 Loss
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 19 of his 23 pass attempts for 202 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during Sunday's Week 15 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. He also took two sacks and rushed for 14 yards and a touchdown. The rookie looked like he was headed for a clean, turnover-free showing before his pass was tipped by Kayshon Boutte and interception. On a more positive note, Maye's two touchdowns were both works of art. The first came on an ad-libbed play where he scrambled toward the goal line, and then as soon as the defender committed to him, Maye shoveled the ball to DeMario Douglas for the score. On his second touchdown, Maye scrambled outside the pocket and scampered into the end zone untouched. The No. 3 pick continues to show impressive accuracy, physicality, football IQ, and rushing upside. He's trending up and should be viewed as a high-end fantasy QB2 heading into Week 16 against the Buffalo Bills.

Drake Maye A Low-End QB1 Despite Reduced Rushing Upside
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye remains a low-end QB1 option in fantasy football ahead of Sunday's Week 15 battle with the Arizona Cardinals. Maye has nine turnovers over his last five games, but he has shown improvements as a passer and runner. In his last outing against the Colts, he completed an impressive 80 percent of passes for 238 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, plus 59 rushing yards. The Cardinals have allowed modest production to opposing quarterbacks this year. On a positive note, they've been one of the worst teams at intercepting passes, picking off the sixth-fewest passes in the NFL. However, on the other hand, they have excelled at containing mobile quarterbacks, allowing the fifth-fewest rushing yards to the position. Maye's ability to scramble may be reduced, but he's still a flashy threat to rack up yardage on the ground and through the air while keeping the Patriots competitive against Arizona.

Drake Maye Completes 80 Percent Of His Passes Sunday
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 24 of his 30 pass attempts for 238 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during Sunday's Week 13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. He also rushed five times for 59 yards on the ground and took four sacks. This was Maye's second-best fantasy performance in the last six weeks, and it was also the first time since Week 10 that he coughed up less than two turnovers. Furthermore, the 22-year-old rookie delivered the second-highest rushing yard total of his young career. All in all, Maye turned in a productive fantasy showing despite the Patriots losing at home. He should continue to be viewed as a fringe top-12 fantasy quarterback on the other side of New England's Week 14 bye.

Drake Maye Trending Up Ahead Of Enticing Matchup Sunday
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye remains an intriguing fantasy option ahead of Sunday's Week 13 game against the Indianapolis Colts. While Maye is coming off his second consecutive loss, the rookie has maintained solid fantasy production, ranking as the overall fantasy QB11 since he took over as the team's starter back in Week 6. This week, Maye gets one of his best matchups yet, facing a Colts defense that has allowed the third-most completions, fifth-most passing yards, and 12th-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. This year's No. 3 overall pick ranks just inside the top 12 fantasy quarterbacks heading into this week's battle against an underperforming Colts squad.

Drake Maye Surrenders Two More Turnovers In Miami
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 22 of 37 passes for 222 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during Sunday's loss to the Miami Dolphins. Maye also rushed for 26 yards, took four sacks, and lost a fumble. Turnovers have been a major issue for the young quarterback in his first season. Through six full games, he has 11 turnovers (seven interceptions and four lost fumbles) and 11 total touchdowns. If he can do a better job protecting the football, he'll boost his fantasy value and create more scoring opportunities for the Patriots. For now, though, he ranks as a QB2 in fantasy football. He does have significant upside heading into Week 13 against the Indianapolis Colts.

Drake Maye Has Top-12 Upside Against Miami
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye remains a low-end QB1 option heading into Week 12 against the Miami Dolphins. Outside of an elevated turnover rate, Maye has been everything the Patriots hoped he would be so far. The No. 3 overall pick has been a top-14 fantasy quarterback in three of his six starts, and he has finished within the top 18 in each of the five games that he's played in full. He threw for a career-high 282 yards and two touchdowns last week, and he has continued to produce solid rushing production in each of his appearances so far. This week, he faces the Dolphins, who have statistically fared well against opposing quarterbacks this year, but some of those numbers are skewed from when Tua Tagovailoa was sidelined and opposing teams were able to adopt a run-heavy approach against Miami. Between Weeks 9 and 10, they surrendered a total of 528 passing yards and three touchdowns to opposing signal-callers. If Maye can exceed 250 yards and tally a couple of scores, he'll crack the top 12 for fantasy quarterbacks.

Drake Maye Throws For Two Touchdowns In Loss To Rams
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 30 of his 40 pass attempts for 282 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. He also rushed for 27 yards, took three sacks, and lost a fumble. Maye still had some blemishes in his performance, including the two turnovers, but will ultimately finish as a fringe top-12 fantasy quarterback for the third time in his young NFL career. Managers should continue to view him as a solid fantasy option for Week 12 against the Miami Dolphins.

Drake Maye Has Top-12 Appeal Against Rams
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye should be viewed as a low-end fantasy QB1 heading into Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. Through five games as the Patriots' starter, Maye has impressed, especially in terms of fantasy football performance. The No. 3 overall pick has scored at least one touchdown in each of his four complete games, including one game with two scores and another with three. Turnovers have been a concern for the rookie, but he makes up for them with impressive rushing production. Maye is averaging 44 rushing yards per start, headlined by an impressive 95 yards on the ground back in Week 9. The Rams have been modest against opposing fantasy quarterbacks this season, leaving Maye in a decent position to fulfill his top-12 quarterback projection.

Drake Maye Quiet In Win Sunday
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 15 of 25 passes for 184 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during Sunday's Week 10 win over the Chicago Bears. He also rushed for 24 yards on four attempts. Notably, Maye played better than fellow rookie quarterback Caleb Williams in their head-to-head matchup on Sunday. The No. 3 overall pick did turn the football over for the fourth time in five starts, but he also led five scoring drives and completed passes to seven different teammates. He remains a fringe top-12 fantasy quarterback heading into next week's matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.
