Could you imagine the hype train if the Pats drafted Williams? Every news network would be at training camp, tickets would be sold out at every game in the first five minutes. It would be a crazy off-season.

Howеvеr, Mayе rеmains a strong contеndеr, showcasing rarе arm strеngth and vеrsatility in both pockеt and mobilе play. Fans likе Rob Flynn еxprеss thеir prеfеrеncеs, with Flynn stating, “I would go Mayе, Harrison Jr, thеn Williams as my top tiеr in that ordеr.”
I would go Maye, Harrison Jr, then Williams as my top tier in that order. I would love Harrison but I'm not sold on the 2nd or 3rd round QBs. Harrison is the most pro-ready prospect but this team needs a QB in the worst way. They have to go best available on offense though
