I like the experience, but trying to figure out why he went from a 14 game starter to waived the next year?

My guess would be numbers. That's how a lot of guys get out there.

Also possible they were hoping to get him back on the practice squad.

I posted elsewhere as well but, from saints wire: "

The Saints almost undoubtedly want Throckmorton back on their practice squad, but it’s unlikely he’ll clear waivers. Few players with his combination of age (he just turned 27 on Aug. 16) and NFL game experience (he’s totaled 1,398 snaps) will be available, and offensive linemen are always valued in the league. Hopefully he stays in New Orleans, but don’t bet on it.

Offseason additions like fourth-round rookie draft pick Nick Saldiveri and the decision to move James Hurst to left guard, pushing Andrus Peat down the depth chart, made Throckmorton expendable.

    • Yeah Icky getting hurt really messes with what we need to do. I think we could go OT this draft as a result of that injury.  But we have cap space and I have enough trust in the FO to fill the holes prior to the draft at this point.
    • I dont think he was ever sold as a offensive genius.  He was sold as the QB 'fixer'.  I would say that the jury is still out on that. He has this next year to make BY a top 15 QB. If he does that then I think he earns that title considering that last year BY was talked about being the biggest draft bust ever. 
    • Mays I view like BC. He can do an admirable job as a starter but he will never be anything other than a bottom third starter. He is a top shelf, critical backup. Hunt would be a net negative salary cap impact to cut/trade this offseason. He also has a $9 mil guarantee that gets triggered on March 13. He would be easier to move in 2027 but I am not sure there will be many takers at his salary. We need to start getting serious about drafting a real C, some interior depth/starters and at least one starting caliber OT. As much as a strength as that unit has been, we are over invested monetarily and the returns have been underwhelming.
