With 500 spirit, the Blue Dragon card is currently worth 800 mana each time it procs. In patch 2.3, with 500 spirit, the Blue Dragon card will be worth 660 mana per proc (due to the increased power of Intensity).
Some additional information on these trinkets, since I use them a lot on mana intense fights.

According to wowhead, Blue Dragon has a 2% procchance. This matches with my experience, that it procs about every two minutes. Now, given the 800 Mana per proc at 500 Spirit, this converts to ~33 MP5. Which means it still is the best regen trinket available.

Endless Blessings should have a procchance of 10%, but from combat logs it seems only to proc twice as often as Blue Dragon due to the 45 second internal cooldown of the proc. For one proc it grants 15% additional spirit based regen. Which gives about ~33*0.15*2 = ~10MP5.

Also, if you have both trinkets you may want to wait for Blue Dragon to proc to activate Endless Blessings for additional 200 Mana. Due to the two minute cooldown it may be ready again for the next proc or innervate if needed.
