Nick Wright says Drake Maye proved he's an elite quarterback and will be a top-five QB going forward, and he made five weekend picks: Dallas blowing out Washington, Jacksonville over Indianapolis, Pittsburgh over Cleveland, Buffalo over Philadelphia, and Chicago winning outright at San Francisco. He also expects Josh Johnson to start at QB for Washington and Philadelphia to land the No. 3 seed.
