He has fewer tackles for loss, sacks, or passes defensed than Mike Hilton, although he does have more forced fumbles (2/yr.)
Pratt is very solid and fills well against the run... and that's about it. He doesn't blitz well or cover well. He is not quite a sideline to sideline guy. With Wilson out the green dot went to Davis-Gaither, not Pratt. In may ways he's a perfect player for Lou, he plays well when everyone else around him is playing well, but he doesn't jump off the screen. So my guess is that fans want to upgrade at OLB just like they want to upgrade all over the defense.. and Pratt doesn't play so well for so little that an upgrade isn't an unrealistic expectation.
