ESPN's Rich Cimini writes the Jets are open to trading Teddy Bridgewater.

Bridgewater reportedly looked good during the offseason program, but the Jets will have little use for him if Sam Darnold wins the starting job in camp. It is not clear how much of a market there is for the former first-rounder, but he could help his value with a strong preseason. Several teams including the division-rival Dolphins could use an upgrade to their backup situation.

Can't think of a better backup QB situation. Price might be too steep though.

If he's available to trade, he's on the bubble to be cut:

Josh McCown / Sam Darnold / One of their former picks 

So to me Teddy is the odd man out here, I think he was insurance for the draft at a modest price, I see him hitting the market, can't imagine at this point to many teams willing to trade for Bridgewater.

The Jets have no reason to cut him honestly. They aren't strapped for cap space and Bridgewater is on a 1 year contract. They can hold onto him through training camp in hopes a QB needy team will trade an asset for him.

This one is kinda like shopping, it catches your eye, you pick it up, look at it, see the price, then put it down and keep moving. My wife however, she buys it and says, but the are shoes (QB) and were on sale.  Everything in the store is for sale, there for, everything is on sale.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking
