If you're tossing it, please toss it my way?? Seriously, the leaves look pretty good, considering. I'd definitely give it a chance for a few months. I've got one that's got a huge root mass with lots of grotty-looking ones, and it's putting out flower spikes.

btw, from what I've seen and read, Brassavola nodosa likes its roots to be all bunched up together. The first plant (plants, see pic) I saw was at Marie Selby Botanical gardens, and the root ball is the size of a basketball with leaves coming out all sides, and blooms to knock your socks off. I've also heard, on a thread a few back, that there is one the size of a large watermelon at the Biltmore conservatory.

You might want to consider leaving them together in the same (new) pot, but I'll defer to Jim or Laurel's expertise on that.
