ryanadonis Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Takk has god given abilities and ideal size for a pass rusher. The problem with Takk is that if everything is not perfect for him, he shuts down. His constant twitter rants and making fun of the team that pays him is pretty ridiculous. I heard someone say, he can have a Shaq Barrett type of season. Barrett has one thing that Takk doesn't have, is heart and passion for the game. I would rather let Davidson or Cominsky or Larken get a shot before Takk, because at least those guys want to play the game. Those guys wont get all emotional and hurt if the offense and defense doesn't play to his style. Takk needs to get traded and get traded fast.

175_Ranger_Falcon Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 People can only hide who they are for so long. You will start to see red flags as times goes on that makes you question their commitment to the team. But they always do just enough to sort of get by. I believe this is Takk. He’s not fully committed to this team, but he will do just enough to make us think that he has bought in. I’m leaning towards the OP, sucks to says this, but we might want to move on from Takk before he becomes a cancer to the locker room vitaman, Lowndesfalc, PokerSteve and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brewcrew Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I expect with the 5th year declined we will see a quieter, more motivated Takk this year since he knows it’s a make or break year and he’s gone either way. Best case he plays wells, goes and gets a fat contract somewhere else and nets us a nice comp pick. capitan and Xero 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atl Falcon Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 And we could’ve had TJ Watt. I’d still take Takk over Bs. Takk needs to grow up however some ppl never do. MD-FalconFan13, egoprime II and MilleniumFalcon 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilco Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I am surprised the team did not shop him prior / during the draft period. Lack of pass rush moves and now bad shoulders...it's a bad combo for a Dend. PokerSteve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he's damage goods, has a big mouth, and is immature. I hope I'm wrong, but I am not on the Takk wagon. Time to move on.

treboyplay Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I watched 80% of this board turn on Beasley by his 4th yr and Takk hasn't done half of what Vic did by year 4. IMO Takk is a complete bust. I agree that he will be motivated this yr but i don't expect much more out of him than what he's already shown. To me his highest ceiling is 8 sacks. But I suspect we'll see him get around 4 or 5. Fine me later Takk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thiccolas Cage Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Takk doesn't want to be here. Probably a good time for Blank to start looking for a new GM/HC too because we aren't retaining any of our firsts and its looking like the same fate might apply to Neal.

It was inevitable. The only part I didn't foresee was this weird obsession with trying to "read the tea leaves" and vilifying his social media posts. Flat out lying and creating narratives out of thin air. It's maddening. Drew4719, Vandy and Cole World 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
