I can't imagine why.

Why the jets didnt want him or why Denver may want him? Panthers may have offered to most of the guaranteed, and that still didnt work for the Jets. Teddy was a jet for a TC, he may have leftd a bad impression on some important people still there.

FWIW, I think we might be a team that drafts a Kellen Mond/Davis Mills level QB prospect.

To be clear, you are suggesting that Darnold, Teddy and Mond/Mills (all three) could be on the final roster?  

Wow.  Wouldn’t that be equivalent to asking current wife, angry ex-wife and au pair/girlfriend/future wife to share a hotel room with the kids, while on vacation at Disney World?

Beautiful. Cant we just trade them in for one decent sack.

No. Teddy isn't going to be on the final roster.

I think we should be it. A team that drafts Mond/Mills might want a player like Teddy to be a placeholder until they are ready.

Personally, on day three of the draft, there are 2 QBs that might be worth drafting and developing for 2 years behind Darnold (assuming they are there, and that is unclear):

Kyle Trask

Jamie Newman

Both have skills and both were damaged by circumstances.  Trask had an inconsistent supporting cast (except one TE) and during the bowl, they opted out.  His performance looked like the first day of spring practice.  Newman just needs coaching--but he was once projected as a first round hopeful this year--was supposed to go to Ga from WF and make that name for himself.  A lot of technical issues, but he has flashed.

I honestly think the QB room as a whole may look entirely different. Darnold will probably be #1 unless fields falls into our lap at 8. We could draft a developmental QB later like Mills, Mond or Trask (I'd prefer Mills). Bridgewater is on his way out (trade or cut-hopefully traded). Grier and PJ both will be released also unless placed on the Practice Squad (probably PJ). Tommy Stevens will be cut also unless he sticks as a TE on the Practice Squad.

If we don't trade Teddy for reasonable draft pick(s) before the season starts, I see no reason to not keep him on the team for the upcoming season. Someone's starting QB may get injured and with that comes potential of trading Teddy to (possibly) QB needy team (may squeeze better compensation in that situation than now).

Do we stand to gain anything financially by cutting him ?

I really like Newman’s potential. He was a let down at the Senior Bowl, the rust was bad due to not playing last year. In the right situation, with the right staff he could become a solid QB IMO. Wouldn’t be upset if we took him in round 4 or later. The good news is Rhule got a close look at him during the Senior Bowl, so he should have a good evaluation of him. I’m just not sure Trask has the arm to be anything more than a backup. He has a similar skill set as Teddy.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
