Who Should I Start? Anthony Richardson Sr. or Drake Maye

Friday, August 29, 10:14 PM

According to Jeff Howe of The Athletic, teams around the National Football League "aren't tripping over themselves" to trade for Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. The Colts have already gone on record by stating the club isn't looking to move him. However, even if Richardson was on the block, most teams wouldn't be interested, considering he'd likely be joining as a backup. In addition, the signal-caller certainly needs more time to develop. Richardson hasn't done much since entering the league as the No. 4 overall pick in the 2023 Draft. His only positive attribute is seemingly as a runner. On the other hand, he has struggled throwing the ball, tossing for 2,391 yards, 11 touchdowns, and 13 picks while completing 50.6% of his attempts. To make matters worse, Richardson was limited to 15 games in his first two seasons. With Daniel Jones under center in Indianapolis, Richardson's value can't get any lower for those participating in redraft formats, although he's still worth stashing in dynasty setups in case he somehow turns things around moving forward.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye will open his second pro season against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. Maye showed several flashes of potential last year, and there's optimism that his accurate passing skills and mobility could make him a fringe top-12 quarterback this year. He definitely has top-12 upside in Week 1 against the Raiders, who allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks last year. It also helps that Maye is playing with the best receiver group of his career, headlined by veteran Stefon Diggs. Maye should be started in all two-quarterback formats, and he's even a strong option in deeper single-quarterback leagues.
