Pratt can still play, no doubt.
Strategically, in roster build terms, I thought we'd ride with him 1 more year and focus more/sooner on other areas of greater need.
But Golden runs his D through the LBs and wanted to change out the unit (ADG & Bachie also gone, Burks, Knight, Carter, & Giles-Harris in).
Heck maybe that was the original plan pre-trade request.
But if Pratt was again threatening to pitch a fit if he wasn't a 3 down guy, then he had to go.
We decided for status quo at 3T, CB (sans Hilton), and S.
