[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 865417, member: 12283"] Let's simplify this. Virtually everyone agrees that Hill has some value as an offensive weapon in the right circumstances. There is disagreement about: [LIST] [*]How much that role is worth. [*]The likelihood that he could become a real quarterback. [*]The sense in trading a 2nd round pick for the rights to sign him to a contract. [*]What he means by his own comments. [*]What Payton means by his comments. [/LIST] In answer to those three points, I would say: [LIST] [*]That role is worth about 5M/season to a team that knows how to use him and has the cap flexibility. 5M is backup/role player money in this league, and I think Hill is a role player. [*]Him ever becoming a good starting QB in a pro offense is highly improbable. [*]It would make no sense for a team to trade a 2nd round pick for him, because I don't think he's worth 5M [I]plus [/I]a 2nd, and on top of that, he seems determined to get paid like a QB in the future. I highly doubt he would sign an offer sheet for a multi-year deal at the price that I think he's worth. [*]I think he's serious when he says he views himself as a starting QB and will determine to get paid as such. This does not mean he will be able to just name his price, but all it would take is one team and you're out-priced. And regardless, it means that he will almost certainly try to find his way to FA, where there's a good chance that he's lost. [*]I think Payton is attempting to gin up trade interest in order to land a 2nd round pick for him (this is admittedly reading into his comments). [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
