If after the trade fell apart, other GMs upped the price for the Bengals on any deal because they were using the Bengals trying to save face as leverage, then I'm glad another move was not made. Say what you will about the front office/ownership, but ...
New | The #Bengals’ Ebiketie error stole the viral moment but dormancy while the top of the AFC improved was the lasting story. The Bengals are AFC contenders and didn’t act like one. It might not matter. But what if it does? 👇A closer look👇 nytimes.com/athletic/7771934…

If the Bengals and Chiefs don't make some kind of move here in the next 30 minutes, it would be a big mistake. You have franchise-changing QBs. Why wait? Their current rosters aren't good enough to win. Go try to improve your team now.

Nonzero chance that the failed trade earlier today scared them off of making a trade today because they still don't know how the comp pick formula works

The Bills added. The Jaguars added A LOT. The Chiefs added. The Broncos added. The Bengals didn’t. Contenders ADD. And the Bengals’ path to winning the AFC just got harder…

Talked to a couple of teams re: Bengals' compensatory pick snafu. They have software that updates them on CFAs inre: playing time and transactions, so they can test how a hypothetical move would impact their picks Do the Bengals not have that? Or just an error in their system?

The trade sending Arnold Ebiketie from the #Eagles to the #Bengals would have impacted Cincinnati's compensatory pick situation for 2027. The swap has now been called off as a result: profootballrumors.com/2026/1…

As I mentioned when @nickkorte caught the League's miscalculation in failing to award CIN a 3rd round comp in the 2024 Draft, @bengals, at minimum, need to have Nick announce the 3rd rd comp pick in the 2027 Draft in DC. Nick giveth and Nick preserveth.
The Bengals need to treat Nick to an all expenses paid trip to sit in a luxury box at a future home game of his choosing

The only funnier thing would have been if the trade had gone through and *then* the Bengals realized their mistake. Which would have led to a mad scramble to trade Ebiketie away before 4 p.m. They might have even had to give up like a late-round pick swap to do it!

Nick has earned us a 3rd round comp pick and now saved us a 3rd round comp pick. Hire him @Bengals
Did Nick Korte just save the Bengals a 3rd round pick?

Put @nickkorte in the Bengals ring of honor
The #Bengals have now called off this trade with an eye toward keeping a future comp pick they would've lost with this deal. Agreement was reached, but not official.

This tweet by @nickkorte was literally worth millions of dollars to the Bengals
Arnold Ebiketie was signed as a compensatory free agent by the Eagles. The Bengals lost 3 CFAs and signed 2 (Cordell Volson not qualifying), thus while they gain a 2027 6th rounder, they lose a 2027 3rd round comp pick that was via Trey Hendrickson going to Baltimore.

That's all @nickkorte (with a hat-tip to @JakeLiscow for posting the relevant CBA provision that everyone should be familiar with now and moving forward).

Yes. @nickkorte has saved the Bengals TWO 3rd rounders in their history.
Replying to @JoeGoodberry
Was @nickkorte the same guy that realized the Bengals were awarded the incorrect comp pick for Jessie Bates a few years ago?

Bengals are expected to back out of the trade for Arnold Ebiketie. The Bengals would have lost a third-round compensatory pick that they were receiving for Trey Hendrickson signing with Baltimore. Now this trade is expected to fall through.
Sources: The #Eagles aren't done, trading edge Arnold Ebiketie to the #Bengals in exchange for 2027 6th round pick.
