Not saying he's fat and old, but he started out as a >240lb LB, and he's gone up rather than down. If you look around the All-Pro LB lists (at non-pass rushers) they're all ~230 these days. He's in his age 28 season, will be in his age 29 season next year and that's another thing besides weight that'll take away a step. He needs to cut about 15-20lbs if he wants to keep up with guys running to the edge/sidelines because young fast guys with fresh legs will keep coming into the league every year.
Pratt has the same issue but even more weight and made worse by the fact that he decided he wants to try to be Charles Tillman now instead of tackling.
What are you, some sort of Math Wizard?
