Whitworth got way too much money for his age it would of hurt the club to sign him. Marvin used Ross to run an end around got him crushed and a fumble. Then he did not use him the rest of the year just what any person with a huge ego would do that was forced to take a player they didn't want. With Tobin Mike and Marvin making the calls on draft choices they wont all go your way take what you got to work with and make the best of it. Which Marvin didn't do Ross could of made an impact this year if used correctly.
'It would have hurt the club to sign Whitworth' - You my friend have been brainwashed by the Bengals front office. We had some $21 million cap space when Whitworth left. We could have franchise tagged him and still extended Burfict. The tag would have been a 1 year deal.
Let's face it...there was no conspiracy to hold Ross back. They played Malone. Ross just wasn't good in practice and he was always hurt. This wasn't the case of 1 mistake and getting pulled. He just wasn't good.
