From ESPN's Bill Barnwell:
I don't typically mention restricted free agents here because the current collective bargaining agreement has mostly eliminated them from the conversation. One restricted free agent who might actually come into play, though, is Taysom Hill. The 29-year-old nearly carried the Saints to a victory against the Vikings, as he completed a 50-yard pass, ran for 50 yards and caught a 25-yard touchdown. At this point, we've seen two years of Hill as a productive player in a part-time role, and he very nearly swung a playoff game.
In a league in which the Ravens built their offense around Lamar Jackson's skills as a dual-threat quarterback and revitalized their entire organization, there are teams that could look at Hill and see the possibility of more significant contributions. Hill isn't in Jackson's league as a passer, but the Saints will face a conundrum regardless. They will have the rights to match any offer Hill receives as a restricted free agent, but the compensation they would get for declining varies by what the Saints choose as Hill's tender level. OvertheCap projects the tender figures to come in for 2020 as follows:
- First-rounder: $4.7 million
- Second-rounder: $3.3 million
- Original round (no compensation for Hill): $2.1 million
I don't think any team is going to make Hill an offer if the Saints slap him with the first-round tender. On the other hand, if they try to save money and go with an original tender, at least one team could be willing to give Hill a deal with $7 million or so due in Year 1, which would dissuade the Saints from matching. The second-round tag makes the most sense, and unless New Orleans can sign him to an extension, that is likely what he will receive.

Taysom with some press on ESPN right now.
He received a 1st round tender, meaning the saints get a 1st round pick if another team signs him. The article also says the saints intend to sign him before free agency even starts.

Somewhat interesting article breaking down Hill's potential as a QB.

Two year contract, $21 million, 16 of it guaranteed.
Congrats, dude. You deserve it.
Also, "Taysom 2.0" and "Tayson Hill clone" descriptions were tossed around for at least 2 signed QBs yesterday. Have Taysom and Saints made a lasting legacy in the NFL?Last edited by LVAllen; 04-26-2020, 12:01 PM.

Taysom is having an awesome game right now. All of the Saints are."...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."
