Quarterback Trevor Siemian was 4th on the New Orleans Saints depth chart last summer when he entered training camp.

By the time week 1 kicked off, he was third string.

By November, he was the starter, due to injuries.

While he never won a game in his 4 starts, he came off the sideline to help lead the Saints to a Halloween victory over the Buccaneers and a win over the rival Falcons in the regular-season finale.

In 6 game appearances, he completed 57% of his passes for 1,154 yards and 11 touchdowns.

Siemian did enough on a one-year deal last season in New Orleans to earn a two-year deal from the Chicago Bears.

Could the Saints could a compensatory pick for Siemian's new deal with the Bears? It depends on the details.
