This guy is only 28 years old, the prime of his career. He's started every game of his career......let me repeat that, he started as a rookie in a Mike Zimmer defense. No offense to Andrew Sendejo, but I'd be stunned if Iloka is only used as a backup depth piece. right, i think we are going to see some super creative defensive sets. the first time? Week 2, at Lambeau. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what it sounds like in this thread, the talent level is pretty similar so I really don't know what the plan is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikings209 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 If we get him cheap we could move Sendejo and use the cap savings to resign Barr?? I think Sendejo and Iloka are kind of a wash between them so we won't lose anything on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iloka has the size advantage but I'm not confident that he's a an upgrade from day one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gnat Posted August 22, 2018 Author Share Posted August 22, 2018 Now shock it's a one year deal. I like the move for the Vikings, and if they want to, they could sign him longer term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CriminalMind Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I can't see them promoting Iloka ahead of Sendejo... yet. Lets just say we add Safety #3 \ Box LB ..... who get the cut (that was making for the 53) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
