| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Games with Names. |
| 0:02.2 | I'm Julian Edelman, and we got a brand new compilation highlight reel starting now. |
| 0:08.4 | Now, Ernie Adams on Drake May, Mike Vrable, and the 2025 Patriots. |
| 0:13.7 | What do you think a good year is for Drake May? |
| 0:19.7 | Okay, so I think the basic standard is year two. Year two. First year, |
| 0:26.8 | you got to show some potential, which he did. Second year, you got to show some significant |

| 1:21.9 | So keep your eyes down field, |
| 1:23.4 | try to complete the pass. |
| 1:24.4 | If there's nothing there, you know, |
