furthermore, Kurt Warner developed in two different professional football leagues before getting his chance to play in the NFL.

When the season kicks off in September, It will be almost 4 years from the last time Tayson Hill threw meaningful passes in a football game.

What else does SP need to see from Hill after 3 seasons? If one thinks he's an offensive genius, you would also think he can identify one's ability to play QB in the NFL pretty quickly.

Here's how it plays out

-- Hill increases his snaps on offense in 2020
Plays well ---> "Taysom has really taken to that role, I think we are a better team with him doing a little of everything"

or

Taysom gets hurt ---> "Look, Taysom got banged up, lost out on precious reps" (also brings worry to ability to stay healthy, which further knocks down his QB prospects)

or

Taysom just sucks all around, and that project becomes scrapped.

SP already paid him, Hill is indebted to the team to play whatever role they need him in. There is no guarantee to him to play QB. SP drafts Tommy Stevens - hmmm, maybe Hill is done after his new extended deal. Stevens becomes his new toy. SP has done way more to suggest Hill ISNT the guy rather than cement that he is.

- Brees makes it through the year injury free (Highly likely)
Winston never gets a shot to step on the field and "prove it" like Teddy did. How does he build value in the eyes of another organization if he isnt on the field? So what's his market going into 2021? Much of the same. But he can build value within the Saints organization (he could also wreck it). This gives the Saints an inside track to lock Winston in for longer at below market value. Taysom stays in the joker role. Either leaves as a FA to pursue playing QB, or realizes he's not that guy, maybe stays here a little longer.
