NFL week 9 thread

Is there a more overpaid/overrated player in the NFL than Taysom Hill. Dude's last contract extension was $140 million,  although I think most of it can be voided. Still, he is 31 years old, and his career stats in 5 years mostly backing up Drew Brees are ~1000 yards passing (4TD's and 4 Int's),  886 yds rushing (14 TDs), 373 yds receiving (7TDs).

Obviously as Brees backup, he wasnt going to get a lot of run. But if he was ever going to take the next step, it should be this year with Brees moving on. Jameis gets hurt and the Saints decide to roll with Trevor f'n Simien at QB instead (Simien is making $850K  vs Hill's $7.25M)?  It baffles me why they pay him all that money if he isnt in the cards as at least their backup QB?  That $7.25M is so far good for 77 yds rushing and 37 yds rec this season. Are they grooming Hill to flourish at the age of 35?
