Patriots flirting with another QB trade would send the wrong message

Drake Maye is the quarterback of the future, and most Patriots fans are in agreement about that. Of course, he'll need to continue to improve on last season's performance, but he built a good base with 17 total touchdowns to 10 interceptions last year. The team around him has improved dramatically, and he's due for a leap in 2025.

Despite Maye's potential, there are still some concerns. He won just one game he started and finished last year, a 19-3 win over Caleb Williams's Bears. Maye put up middling numbers that game, though, throwing for just 184 yards with a TD and an INT to his name, completing 60% of his passes.
