Signed by Cowboys Safety George Iloka signed

[SlammedZero]

I told you guys. He went to Boise State. He was an automatic pencil in on the roster.

Where did Tre Boston end up?

 

[DanA]

- Good size
- Plays faster than his combine time
- Is smart and can be expected to pick up the play book quickly.
- Played most of his career as a deep safety and better in zone
- IMO looked his best in 2016 playing SS

Homeless man’s Sensabaugh

You guys have not spent 5 minutes reviewing Iloka's game footage.

So they will play him closer to the line and in m2m.

I think it's a good signing. Doesn't break bank, and the team can still draft safety early. If you don't want Dallas to blatantly reach for needs in the draft, this is a good move.

I also think this is good for those who want Dallas to trade for Quinn, which includes myself. I think it is less likely that Dallas would trade for Quinn if they signed Berry. Berry would almost certainly cost more money than IIoka.

Not saying you’re not “tied in” to something that happened in last 30 mins but here is take from team employee.

Dave Helman is somewhere between Baghdad Bob and Mickey Spagnola on the objectivity scale.

Heath > Iloka

Come on.

To even compare someone to Heath seems like an insult to me.

 

[Fastpitch Dad]

Not all that much of an upgrade

You very well could be right, but at least we have signed some competition for the position.

Wow! Dallas signs back up depth for the SS position and suddenly he is better than what we have. I hope people realize George Iloka would get smoked by Heath in the 40. Come on man this is just a depth signing.
4.66 vs 4.48

 

[ghst187]

Chumpionship!

 

[Stash]

You'd have a point if he was even an ounce of the player Kam was.

Oh he's "an ounce" for sure, you just have to determine for yourself just how many.

That's an indictment of the 40-time if anything.

Wasnt it Heath we watched run down Saquon Barkley?

 

[popp1234]

He's better than Sensabaugh.

Since Darren Woodson has left, it goes...

1. Roy Williams (pre-Kelly Rowland)
2. Kenny Hamlin
3. George Iloka
4. Barry Church
5. Gerald Sensabaugh
6. Abram Ebram
7. Alan Ball
8. Danny McCray
9. Andrew Sendejo
...
57. Jeff Heath

Nice!

After Woodson you might as well group all those guys together because splitting straws. Roy Williams was a horse collar specialist and once they changed the rule he was done.

 

[Cowboy06]

Boooooooooom!!!!!!!! Yes sir!! Good signing. Not on the level of Earl or Berry, but an upgrade over Heath for sure and quality depth at the very least. Now let’s get DE Quinn.

See I don't agree that Earl or Berry would have been better. Both had injuries that would make you pause...both will most likely not complete long term contracts (not even sure Berry will get a long term agreement). I hope they will draft a FS in the draft or find a way to acquire one in 2020. As Rome wasn't built in a day...but I do like this signing if for nothing else we have some experience back there that may be able to push others on the roster to do better or get pushed off the roster.

 

[OmerV]

Guess this makes safety an unlikely selection at 58.......apparently they don't think S at 58 would be an upgrade.

Or maybe they feel like something else at 58 is a more important upgrade

we are renting JAG for a year. Nothing more. Break out the duct tape.
