On a Jets fan forum they reckon Alex Lewis as about their best Olineman and worth about 2 M per year. Joe Douglas knows the Ravens players well - why not trade Hurst to the Jets for a 7th rounder? Douglas will surely get better player(s) in the draft, but Hurst could have been an improvement at G for them last year.

No reason to cut him today. He does not count against the 53 man roster until week five and you just saved 1 million in cap space. There is no post June 1 designation this year so any cap hit from cuttin ghim has to be all in this year. Same cap outcome if you cut him the day you form your 53 man roster. For that matter you could wait up until the fourth week and then cut him.
Why would you do that you want to know? INJURIES. He is a backup across the line. If either tackle or guard goes down he is a plug and play answer. He knows the system and is well liked. Cut him today because he pisses you off by testing positive for PEDs and then you have a player go down in camp or the first four weeks of the season and you are screwed. You cut your best, in house, long term backup. I am not cutting his ass, I now own his ass. For that matter you could even trade him if another team has a lineman go down with injuries early in the season. The timing needs to work out right but it very well could happen. Keep him, save 1 million in cap already and either keep him when he comes back or trade him for a late round pick if another team needs a lineman week four or five.

His serviceability has value but in the larger picture of the cap and the coming of the Lamar payoff, Hurst is a JAG who might be well replaced by a fourth round OT. EDC is already thinking, I am sure, about where he can save money soon and down the line in the next couple of years, so that Lamar can get paid and a solid structure with quality players does not have to get broken up. Hurst is not a major piece in that context, and if we can save money on the minor pieces without losing quality, we should try to do that. Bozeman, Powers and Skura are good for the interior, and there is good reason this year to look for an OT in the fourth round.
Another reason to draft the OT, is that EDC may not be able to hold on to Orlando Brown in 2022."Flacco is driving the ball in that wind....."
