He has a decent chance of getting washed away and blocked on run plays here-and-there. He only started 1 year at NC State. People love him because he was a Free Safety prior to becoming a LB. But being a FS he hasn't had a lot of time fighting blocks against the run.  I'd give him some time before I'd expect an NFL caliber starter.

People love him because we drafted him. Just like Sample.

Had the Steelers drafted Sample in the 2nd Round, we'd be hearing about how they reached for a blocking TE. We'd also hear about all of Pratt's deficiencies.

That's how most people on the board roll.
