So, no, you don't need that on your defense. What you need is speed and instincts and play making ability. Right on ! This has been a Bengals problem well since MB took over. Which a lot stems from the Ogbuehi for example, it's glaring obvious he's never going to be anything more than what he is. A very subpar OT Bengals cutting Iloka - BenZoo2 - 08-21-2018 The Iloka cut isn’t all that hard to get. The bengals want more turnovers. He had what, 2 career ints? He regressed after getting paid and was overpaid relative to his performance. Looking at Kurt Coleman in free agency and drafting Bates put the writing on the wall. Eric Reid and the former charger safety is still out there I think. I can’t recall his name. There was probably little trade market for iloka at his salary. That salary will hopefully go towards geno and Carlos extensions. I also think they are liking what they see in Wilson and Henderson, among others to feel comfortable with this move. It’s not like this will keep us from winning a playoff game Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk RE: Bengals cutting Iloka - jj22 - 08-21-2018 (08-21-2018, 10:33 AM)XenoMorph Wrote: Shaw's not taking his place... At most hes a backup Saftey and CB I guess I'm just shocked people think higher of Williams (what has he done again) then they have Iloka all this time. Our Safety's were good with Nelson and Iloka. Never with any combination along with Williams. Just watch the last two preseasons games. Iloka was all over the place making tackles breaking up passes. Williams was and is nowhere to be found. Hasn't made a play yet. Very rarely do I remember people slamming Iloka like they are now on this board. Don't be surprised if Iloka is a probowl player at his next stop. Someone will play him at his right position.

We had 2 starting strong safeties they kept the younger one with more years left under contract to play with the new Free Safety RE: Bengals cutting Iloka - XenoMorph - 08-21-2018 (08-21-2018, 11:08 AM)bengalfan74 Wrote: Right on ! Yes Og is a bad pick but when you invest in a 1st rounder on someone you try and get it to pan out.. Very doubtful hes on the final 53.

Iloka was payed to really take that big leap after Reggie left, but he actually took a step back Shawn Williams has been the best safety on the team over the last couple years. This move also gets me excited about Bates who must have really impressed enough to make it possible. what he said ^^ RE: Bengals cutting Iloka - Essex Johnson - 08-21-2018 (08-21-2018, 11:26 AM)jj22 Wrote: I guess I'm just shocked people think higher of Williams (what has he done again) then they have Iloka all this time.

Sorry i found Iloka looking slow out there.. he has been on a regression for three years.. i think just turned 30.. i feel he lost a step, they drafted Bates for a reason, to replace a safety.. performance, cap hit, age and maybe where Bates looked the best [ strong safety] they made the decision. As i stated before. the one trend over the last few years has been moving to youth and speed. I think the article today points that out well. https://www.bengals.com/news/defense-hits-fast-forward RE: Bengals cutting Iloka - NATI BENGALS - 08-22-2018 Even with the safety market the way it has been. I am stunned Iloka doesnt have a team yet. I havent heard about a visit. What the heck?

Every year he did that the explosive plays abruptly stopped once he was out there. If Iloka was the QB why was it necessary to get Crocker back? Not true at all; Crocker was brought back to satrt in place of Mays not Iloka. In 13 Crocker played the slot not safety.

Dude your wrong and know where close to being right. Iloka has always played the deep zone, Iloka replaced crocker in the secondary who's job was to line it up which Iloka has done well. His responsibility and Bates responsibility are two totally different things.

BTW, hate to be the spelling police here but when you type words that don't mean the same thing it is extremely confusing. It is nowhere, not know where. Iloka was extremely young when Reggie was here, no way as a rookie was Iloka lining up the Defense. Crazy talk i tell yah, crazy talk. ![]() RE: Bengals cutting Iloka - J24 - 08-22-2018 (08-22-2018, 01:36 PM)Nate (formerly eliminate08) Wrote: How can you say i was wrong?

He was properly prepared for the role. What's crazy talk is you think three unproven players can take easily take over his role without any warrent. Fej, Williams, and Shaw are very unproven at this point. RE: Bengals cutting Iloka - Go Cards - 08-22-2018 Only agree with move if OL help is purchased with extra money.

He was properly prepared for the role. Hey Jake, i liked Iloka i really did, but the last two seasons he was not playing great or anything especially in getting turnovers. The coaches think our young players are prepared to take over his role and cause more TO's. Also getting rid of his salary might allow us to extend Geno and Dunlap and hopefully bring in a decent RT. Not going to cry over the spilt milk that might not of even been spilt in the first place. Good luck to George in Minnesota, think he might do well there with Harrison Smith next to him. |
