The 2024 NFL Draft was probably the most hyped this side of forever, simply for its star-studded quarterback class. Six quarterbacks deservedly went in the first round as an indication of the position's depth and quality. Certainly, the main three headliners were the first three picks: Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, and Drake Maye, who all walked into their professional careers with truly gigantic expectations.

Filmmaker to capture Drake Maye’s NFL journey


All season, really, these young quarterbacks were on a rollercoaster of varying amounts of success and failure. Caleb Williams, although a struggle as the number one overall pick, had his hefty share of botching initial transitions to the catch and speed of the NFL.

Hitherto, Jayden Daniels dazzled his rookie season by leading deep into the playoffs and drawing comparisons to some of the NFL's elder star members. In the midst of all this hype for the up-and-coming stars, there is now huge media attention on Drake Maye, whom many consider to be yet another great franchise quarterback.
The project has already grabbed the attention of one prominent filmmaker. A filmmaker with a history of documenting the lives of sports icons like Tom Brady and Michael Strahan now intends to document Maye's first year and beyond, capturing an intense personal study of his development that will allow fans an inside look at the life of a young quarterback battling to create his mark in the league.
The opportunity is both thrilling and petrifying for Maye. The moment he steps into the New England Patriots quarterback position, he carries all the weight that comes with its historical expectations. People see him as the possible heir to Tom Brady, a thought that brings inspiration and tons of responsibility.

The documentary will showcase Maye in an unprecedented way; from a young boy learning the fundamentals of the game, through his early struggles and on-field triumphs. Attention will be given to his training, psyche, and how he overcomes hurdles that arise as he makes the transition into professional football. Given the access granted to him in life and his career, the fans now face a golden opportunity to see the making of a quarterback intent on creating a legacy for himself.
