He had a much better ratio than Watson did, with the Colts QB struggle last year even...

Because its the popular thing to say about a TE or WR without having a clue if its true or not. Often based on one play in one game.

Ask the Colts' fans; Fleener dropped some crucial drive extending drives and red zone opportunities...

Colston dropped a couple of those the last two seasons and that seems to be that all some Saints fans remember...

Hoping Da Mullet can be more clutch and be more successful...

I agree we have not really seen that much from Hill. SP really sang His praised last year and Hill's contributions did not amount to much. He looks slow to me and not a type that can evade tacklers. I would like to see Him do well but I don't really get why SP is so high on Him. Verdict for me is hope for the best.

Literally makes no sense. Mickey Loomis' decision-making ability has been dumpster fire status for several years now.

Lets recap...

Matching the offer actually saved us cap space over the tender.
He's a redzone threat, and a good pass catching TE.
He's an excellent special teams player.
He's still very young and developing.
We signed him for back-up TE money.

What exactly doesn't make sense to you?

Hill needs to re-prove himself. I don't want to lose games next year because of dropped passes and incompletions again.
