1) The Bengals are very satisfied with their safety depth right now
2) Hooker really only had one season of production. It was a very good year, but we know the Bengals value tape.
3) Hooker had surgery in late January to repair a torn labrum and hernia.

2 and 3 would have ruled Ross out.

I think the Bengals just fell in love with Ross's speed. Plain and simple.
