Over the past couple of years, Josh Allen has been the measuring stick to talk about big, raw quarterbacks with a strong arm. He struggled mightily earlier in his career, so heâs also a blueprint for patience and quarterback development.
Thatâs why not many people gave that much thought to the comparisons between him and Drake Maye, as itâs not the first time scouts have said something similar.
Fast forward to today, and they may have actually nailed it with this take. Thatâs why New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel wanted to share his two cents on these comparisons.
Mike Vrabel calls Maye, Allen âgreat competitorsâ
âJosh probably got a couple [more] LBs on âem, and he kinda throws his shoulder in there probably a little bit more than I would want Drake to. But I think theyâre both great competitors,â Vrabel said, per Tom Carroll.

Josh Allen #17 of the Buffalo Bills.
At the end of the day, theyâre both outstanding players, and thereâs no need to compare them. Mayeâs journey is just getting started, and he can be legendary in his own way.
The AFC East division will see some epic battles for years to come. And while the Patriots are back on top right now, Josh Allen is still the best quarterback in the division until further notice.
