If you think the 2023 QB draft debate is crazy, wait until Drake Maye vs. Caleb Williams in 2024

Drake Maye, a redshirt sophomore who had 45 TDs (7 rush) last year at UNC, has been compared to Justin Herbert and Trevor Lawrence. A tall, athletic, pro-style quarterback who can make every throw — and stress defenses with his ability to run and throw off schedule. Maye and USC QB Caleb Williams likely will arrive in a dead heat on NFL Draft day. (Saturday Road)
