Fantasy Outlook

Maye's first full season as a starter went better than even Patriots fans imagined. He finished QB2 in fantasy, was second in MVP voting and took New England to the Super Bowl. Maye's league-leading 72.0 completion percentage was the sixth highest in NFL history, all the more impressive considering his average target depth was 9.1 yards -- the highest of any QB in the top 20 all-time for completion rate. Maye threw 10-plus yards downfield at the fifth-highest rate in the league (37.2%), also ranking third in completion percentage on attempts of 20-plus yards (52.1%). He led the league with 8.9 YPA, solidly ahead of second-place Sam Darnold (8.5 YPA). In addition to finishing fourth in passing yards (4,394) and third in TD passes (31), Maye's rushing production vaulted him up the fantasy rankings. He was fourth among QBs with 450 rushing yards, adding four scores. He benefited from an easy schedule, however. The Patriots didn't face a top-10 defense until the playoffs, and in the Super Bowl against the league's best defense, Maye got smoked. He'll play a first-place schedule this year, but his rushing production should hold up since nearly all of it came from his league-high 62 scrambles (he also had the highest scramble rate - 10.3%). The rumored A.J. Brown trade would help mitigate likely regression, not only in terms of passing stats but also for the Patriots in general. If they don't end up with Brown, they'll essentially be giving Maye the same group of lackluster receivers he won with last year, except for swapping out Stefon Diggs for Romeo Doubs. Maye is good enough and mobile enough to maintain his place among the top-five fantasy QBs even without a perfect situation around him, but that might require more volume to account for the difficulty of matching last year's blistering efficiency.
