We have a young journeyman on the practice squad named Siemien and a 4th round rookie draft pick that is a relatively unknown outside of Payton and his QB coaches who vouched for him along with the scouts.

I'd put them at average but without even knowing which guy will start it's difficult to speculate. I don't believe that Taysom Hill is a starting QB in the NFL and I can only hope that Winston can be good with a great offensive mind like Payton training him.

I think "average" would be the floor for the Saints QB room. Winston has five years of starting experience and has put up eye-popping numbers at times. The interception total (30) in his final season with the Bucs was more than double his career average (14.5) coming into that season. Bruce Arians had more than a little to do with that anomalous number. I would not be surprised at all to see Winston finish in the top third of the league in several positive categories.
