FOXBORO, Mass. — The New England Patriots selected quarterback Drake Maye with their third overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Maye, one of the consensus top quarterback prospects, had been heavily linked to New England throughout the pre-draft process. Some 10 hours before the draft Thursday, reports initially surfaced that said Maye all but certainly would be New England’s selection at No. 3.
The Chicago Bears selected USC quarterback Caleb Williams with their No. 1 overall pick. The Washington Commanders used their No. 2 pick on LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels.
