Marvin wanted Reuben Foster. Even after he got thrown out of the combine, and had the "diluted sample", Marv saw his athletic ability and wanted him.
I wanted Ross, but I don't mean this thread to be about Ross and his Marv Issues.
Foster has been arrested for pot and no domestic violence with possession of an illegal assault rifle in the same month. He is likely facing a six game suspension.
Had the Bengals drafted him, they would be right back where they started reputation-wise. And they would be without another high draft pick. So Marv acts like a douche and doesn't play Ross because he wanted Foster. Thank God the Bengals didn't listen to him.
Right there with you wanting Ross over Foster at the time and i bet Ross makes the bigger impact this year after Foster's
suspension. Ross will have an entire Offseason and Lazor will have his own playbook to use him at his strengths. Ross
having time to heal up the shoulder should help and he can gain some muscle to take hits.
Foster was nuts at the combine and is a really small Linebacker.
I like Roquan Smith much better if we go LB in the first this draft.
