Orlovsky highlighted his good mechanics throughout a handoff regardless of not enjoying below middle a lot at North Carolina and his robust base on a 7-step drop earlier than getting the ball out rapidly.
Maye will probably start the season on the bench studying behind Jacoby Brissett, which isn’t a shock as he was checked out as a little bit of a challenge popping out of UNC.
Patriots followers should be enthusiastic about what they noticed out of Maye regardless that he solely threw three passes and each of his completions have been display passes to his operating backs.
New England had the worst offense in soccer final 12 months and there’s no purpose to hurry Maye to be the savior.
Thus far so good, as Maye appears to be pretty much as good as marketed.
