We got Germaine Pratt who is a great cover and tackling Linebacker. That is what this Defense needed and namely a new LB coach.
Austin and Haslett were the biggest problems on Defense, they are gone and replaced with Lou, Tem and Pratt.
I believe our Defense will be very good this year and our Offense will be lights out giving our Defense the rest they need.
Pratt was almost exclusively an old school run stuffing LB and rarely covered. We don't really know he can cover and will probably just be asked to do short routes/ RB coverage. He will come of the field in nickel in favor of Vigil and Brown.
The sad part is we needed someone to replace Brown that can cover because he is horrible. Aside from being crushed when the Steelers took Bush, I thought we would still draft a faster coverage backer. Let's hope Malik took some smart pills in the offseason.
