Message: [QUOTE="Husky25, post: 5346439, member: 2839"] I'm not exactly sure what you are driving at. Even in college, Maye was statistically head and shoulders above Stidham. (Late) 4th round quarterbacks are projects and the Patriots had at least a year to see what they had. When Stidham relieved Brady his rookie year vs. the Jets, he threw a pick-6, forcing Brady to come back in. That may have been an indication. Cam Newton not only beat him out in 2020, so did Brian Hoyer. Stidham was the "emergency" 3rd QB. That may have been another. A good chef can only go so far. He's got to have quality ingredients as well. Maye was drafted #3 overall and was seen from the beginning to become the eventual starter. By the way, Jones is better than Stidham too. He's revived his career and is playing pretty well in San Francisco. I think if the '9ers are being fair, they will have a tough decision when Purdy comes back. Jones may not be Steve Young, but Purdy is no Joe Montana either. [/QUOTE]
