Great question.So why have we kept him
I'm good with this except if Travis is available I don't see why Tyrod can't be the 'cheap one year bridge' and Travis the backup. If Travis is not available then bring in a journeyman or a second/third round draft pick to be the backup.Neither is worthy of a first round grade.
Let's get a top reciever to pair with Wilson. A RT to complete the line. A safety, corner and DT. Build a team a young QB can thrive with. Not barely survive on.
Get a cheap one year bridge QB let Tyrod be the
backup and see what we have in Travis .
Next year we can grab some FAs, draft a QB and add some more talent in the draft. This years QB class is shit. Trade up and dig into a deeper hole is more of the same ol Jets. Next we will be throwing top dollar for washed up bum to save jobs due to the failed QB.
Biggest problem is that Travis is a complete question mark. I didn't have him rated as a first round talent when they drafted him. In fact I'm not sure he was even a second round. Add to that the fact that he hasn't done anything since becoming a Jet but stay in the shadows. Tyrod may still fit into the picture somewhere because he's still under contract and a decent QB. But at this point we don't have a starter named and have no clue what Glenn and Mouge have in mind. It's so challenging to be a Jets fan...........I'm good with this except if Travis is available I don't see why Tyrod can't be the 'cheap one year bridge' and Travis the backup.

They won't have any idea what Travis can do prior to the draft or more importantly free agency. He won't see the field until OTAs.. I expect a cheap one year option for this season.I'm good with this except if Travis is available I don't see why Tyrod can't be the 'cheap one year bridge' and Travis the backup.

You can say the same about any QB in the draft. But you can't put your guy in the PS or he just gets scooped up by someone else. So you either carry 3 on the main squad or you make your rookie the backup. New Orleans finished the season with Spencer Rattler.They won't have any idea what Travis can do prior to the draft or more importantly free agency. He won't see the field until OTAs..

Can't throw a rookie on the field with this roster.
How did that work out for him and the Saints?You can say the same about any QB in the draft. But you can't put your guy in the PS or he just gets scooped up by someone else.

I agree let's look at our goodsHow did that work out for him and the Saints?
You can keep him on the roster and have him as one of the inactives too.
Travis has a guarantee salary. May as well get a look at him.
If Tyrod was durable, I would agree with you completely but he isn't and has never been able to stay healthy.
