1) I assume Ziggy is saying that Hill's options will not be picked up and he will be a free agent. If Ziggy meant released then I have no defense for him.
2) Tulo wasn't drafted by JP because Adams and Hill were the middle-infield of the future.
I think Hill was the projected SS of the two too.
Ant has inferred that he wanted the best player available that draft (presumably Troy) and - in general - drafting based on need is an organizational flaw.
