Re: Bengals waive Khairi Fortt

Who was asking if our front office was as good as we think they are, specifically referring to the cutting of Fortt? Seems so now doesn't it?

Why would we do that when the team cut him for missing meetings? If they wanted to keep him, they would have...

Re: Bengals waive Khairi Fortt

Sorry, man, sarcasm there. This dude is a basket-base.

What would've been below-the-belt is the Bengals trading him back to us for a 4th Round pick.

Re: Bengals waive Khairi Fortt

I guess this was Rob Ryan "getting weird"


Weakside linebacker, didn't even play a full run of college ball... drafted with the intent to start on special teams and fill a depth need at middle linebacker. Then mysteriously moved to outside linebacker, pass rusher, playing with his hand on the ground, even though he's never previously played a down of football that way before in his life. Then he's injured, but not really so injured after all....

I can't help but wonder if we are dealing with Rob Ryan "getting weird" which actually means in translation, "I bend over to watch every down with my hands on my knees, and I may not know what the hell I'm doing."

Curiouser and courioser. How could a player go from being good enough to use a teams only IR to return tag, to being dropped by two teams that need LB depth in just a week.

There's got to be more to the story.

You nailed that one. It is an odd strain of circumstances around this guy.
