"I think probably a little bit of both. I think Josh [McDaniels] and Ashton [Grant] have tried to work hard on that. I also think Drake is talented. It's like a pitcher. I don't know if there's a pitching coach that really taught Greg Maddux how to paint the plate and put the ball wherever he wanted it. So I think there's some natural skill there, but then I think that they work on those things."

So I think there's some natural skill there, but then I think that they work on those things. They work on platform and throwing off of different places and still remaining accurate. And climbing the pocket and working with a base and all those things."
Drake Maye has accelerated his second-year development, cutting interceptions and leading the league in completion percentage. After 10 interceptions in 12 rookie starts, Maye has five through 11 games in 2025 while ranking first in completion percentage (71.9%) and second in yards per attempt (8.9). Coaching staff including Josh McDaniels and Ashton Grant worked on mechanics such as platform, throwing from different spots, pocket climbing, and base work to improve accuracy. A Greg Maddux analogy underscores elite ball placement and hand-eye coordination. Natural athleticism, refined mechanics, and targeted coaching have combined to elevate Maye's consistency and playmaking.
