Awful player who I disliked immediately on draft day.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

Thats crazy that Buffalo missed the playoffs from 2000-2016. With how good they’ve been lately I forgot that they sucked for so long,

I had no idea they still had his rights. Ok.

Mckinley was signed on to the Cowboys' practice squad on Nov. 16th during last season - one day after oft-troubled journeyman WR Antonio Callaway.

 

[AsthmaField]

I guess the Cowboys got tired of him carrying the huge picture of his granny around the Star with him.

Bong.

 

[links18]

We didn't like this guy....

 

[Kingofholland]

I remember being dissapointed we narrowly missed out on him in the draft and settled for Taco. I guess either way it wouldn't have worked out.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

We will rue the day. Rue I tell you

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

Since we're already releasing guys whose first names sound like "Hack".... I wonder if we should, uhhhhhh.... wait, I just lost my train of thought. Nevermind

 

[Beaker42]

Takk was almost as big a bust as Taco. Both chosen over TJ Watt.

Marinelli should be tarred and feathered for the Taco pick.

 

[gimmesix]

That means...free.

I'm going to take it that you've never had to do what it takes to stay in shape to play in the NFL or practice against 300-pound men looking to make you a turf stain.

The NFL isn't easy even for players who are just on the practice squad. Plenty of careers end before they can even begin because of injuries from the strain it puts on the body.

If you want to debate that players are overpaid, that's one thing. To say he was getting a free paycheck is ignorant.

 

[Momanpr100]

Good. Takk did absolutely nothing but collect a free paycheck.

It's not free. You think players should practice for free? It still is work. Merica I tell ya

 

[Momanpr100]

Don't think it was free. I'm pretty sure he worked out, practiced, etc.

100% correct

They're still the Bills if that helps any lol

Dallas and Buffalo both made the playoffs in 1999.

Dallas fired Gailey, hired and fired Campo, hired and lost Parcells, hired and fired Wade, and got 3/4ths of the way through Garrett’s tenure before Buffalo made the playoffs again.

Crazy.

Show some respect. He lost his grandmother and was dedicating it all to her.

And he failed.
