Since Kendall was a starter last season, I would be surprised if Kendall is released. I think that the Jets will try to trade him first, most likely to a team in the NFC. Even a seventh rounder is better than nothing.
I agree, which is why they've probably kept him around this long as they know once he's released he may well make a bee-line to Miami and visa-versa.
The only issues with a trade is that any team wanting to pick him up would probably have to be willing to restructure his contract or face an unhappy player who could be a distraction. He also would be limited to teams that prefer lighter, quicker guards.
