You guys have pretty much said it, but a takedown shouldnt be worth Jack Diddly.

Slams, or takedowns in side control, yes. Takedown into guard. No.

Takedowns aren't worth ANYTHING unless you do something with it.

What I'd like to see are actually more points for attempted submissions. How many times do you see a wrestler take down a BJJ guy. The wrestler just lays in the BJJ guard and throws a few weak punches and elbows. In the meantime, the BJJ is going for an armbar, then a kimura, then guillotine, then another armbar....always working. Once they stand again, its just rinse and repeat the whole fight. Then the wrestler wins the fight because he had more takedowns, even though the BJJ did more.

Long story short, a takedown shouldn't be considered any more than you would consider a clinch, or a jab. Its not something that actually MEANS much, more like something you use to do/set up something else. Jab isnt the greatest analogy, but you get the idea.
