The Taysom Hill deal was for 21 million dollars!

A lot of that is true, but the thing we haven't seen him do is run the offense on a consistent basis or throw with accuracy. Even the big play to Harris in the Vikings playoff game was an under throw. And running a few plays here and there is a lot different than facing a defense that has specifically game planned to defend you. That's one big reason it could be different and when he has played in preseason, he has gotten better, but we still haven't seen him play a really great game where he dominates another teams' backups.

I'm not saying he can't be the starting QB. But it's no sure thing. And signing Winston and only giving Hill a two year deal certainly seems to indicate that the Saints want to give themselves some time to see if Hill can develop as a QB before having to commit to Taysom Hill, franchise QB.

I know it's not regular season... and he won't get to throw much in the regular season with Drew here... But I have seen the opposite...

I have seen him make throws with great accuracy... great touch... great velocity... and extend plays to do so... on many occasions in the pre-season. And I realize it's the pre-season, but he's also exhibited these things in the regular season as well (and then some).



Ignore the runs here (which are all great BTW)... Tell me what I am not seeing?

PS... The one play from the Vikings game which was under thrown needs to be taken into context... He's coming in cold, and the play still went for 50 yards (we scored on the next play). So If we are going to use that as a "bad Taysom" example... I'll take it.

If we are going to nit pick one throw... how about this one (regular season this year):
