[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 865383, member: 12283"] You aren't privy to Hill's internal thought process anymore than anyone else is. And in respect, [I]you [/I]are the one "reading into" his comments. He said, definitively, that he thinks he's a franchise QB. He also said that if his current team doesn't agree, he will just have to go elsewhere. So when you say that he's just posturing, and that he really knows that that's not realistic, you are reading into his comments. Doesn't make you wrong, but it does mean that you have to make a lot more assumptions. It's akin to the Bridgewater situation. On the one hand, I and others of my opinion have said that starting Bridgewater means that they preferred Bridgewater. Seems pretty logical. On the other hand, some are "reading into" the situation and saying they were just saving face due to the contract. I can't prove them wrong, but then the burden of proof isn't really on me there. Almost nothing in sports or the NFL is ever 100% sure. I am not technically 100% sure that MVS can't be a legit #1 WR. But I think I have a pretty darn good idea. By that same token, I am pretty darn sure that Taysom Hill is not a good starting QB in this league unless a team sells out to install what would essentially amount to his offense from BYU. For evidence, I would point out that he came out of college as an impressive athlete without experience or aptitude for pro style offense; he went undrafted; he's over-aged to be trying to develop; he's injury prone, which is problematic because any effective offense that he operates will involve a lot of QB run game; and since he entered the league, he's been exclusively a trick play artist at this level.
