The Taysom Hill deal was for 21 million dollars!

I'm not going to argue about it. Maybe he does get the full $21 million just from being on the team. But the max is $21 million with the incentives included. But, like I said, it really doesn't matter. He costs what he costs and his cost this year is less than $5 million. We have the money and we are a better team with him this year than without him. And if he costs $16 million next year, that may be high for an unproven starting QB, but it's only for one year and it leaves the Saints options wide open after that. It could be Winston, it could be Hill works out, it could be a guy we take in the draft, or maybe we sign Deshaun Watson or another vet as a free agent. I think the least likely is Hill or Deshaun Watson, but we can always hope it works out.
But you keep arguing. Does this report for Yahoo Sports clear it up?
