Dont know him but same friend who did not like Gibson thinks this guy is average.

Basically, Takitaki substituted for Wilson. An upgrade, at least on paper.

Yeah he started 7 games for Cleveland last year and played in 15 if anything is a good depth piece

Insight from a Browns fan

 

[AQPE]

Mayo knows LBs. Ipso facto … approve!

 

[ahmed]

On the Browns reddit sub; literally every post is sad to see him go. Makes me excited!!!

Now we need AsiAsi back

Using free agency to build a strong middle class is reminiscent of how Belichick approached it when he first took over the team.

He really needs to be nicknamed “Ticky”

Or maybe “Tikki Tikki”

Now we need AsiAsi back

We’ll have half the witch doctor song from Alvin and the Chipmunks.

Way more athletic than Wilson. I'll take it. Plus Browns swapped Wilson and kept TakiTaki.

He's less expensive also.

Wilson 4.25 aav
Takitaki 3.25 aav

Takitaki needs to work on his tackling. Mack Wilson missed 3. TakiTaki missed 11. Though TakiTaki took twice the number of snaps as Wilson.

That being said.. Here are their Numbers..Ignore the RAS Scoring and look at the numbers.

Of note:, Takitaki is 3 years older than Wilson.

Wilson was way above average in pass coverage. He was sticky and closed real fast.
