Hill looks good. Nice to see another option

I hope he sees the field more this year so we get a real look at the kid. my only concerns with the TE position is the fact Watson is our only TE that can be called a blocker.

If Saints go with Griffin as back up qb then have kilgore as 3rd qb on practice squad.this could allow saints to keep a 4th Te on 53 roster.

I think Hill has moved firmly into the #3 TE spot and bearing down on that #2 spot as Watson ages.

I've read some good things about Hamm and Jacobs though. They might be that 4th TE in lieu of that 5th RB or 6th WR or 9th OL etc...

Paytons has surprisingly kept 4 TE's before so it wouldn't shock me. We could run a lot more 2-TE sets, or even 3 TE's considering Grahams ability to line up wide.

Options are good.

Hill went to a small high school in a pretty small town just west of where I live (in the dry desolate part of the state with nothing but rock and sage brush). He attended Idaho State University. A small university in eastern Idaho.

The kid has potential. I've been keeping an eye on him. Its been cool to see him develop.

Looks like Hill up to about 255 on a 6-5 frame.

We ran a few 2 TE sets vs rams and had pretty good success running the ball to that side, although Ingram ran the ball well in every formation they were in

Last year I thought he looked stiff when he was on the field. This year he looks fluid...........smooth even.

I'd love to see formations with Jimmy split wide or in the slot and Watson or whoever our best blocking TE is. Even if he's a TE, he's one of the best if not the best WR in the league. I actually think he's a better WR than Calvin Johnson. For those who think that's crazy, remember he led the league in fade route receptions and receiving TDs. Plus he's way faster than Colston.
