Seems like he hit the mark more than most Bengals, if he was top 10 in tackles.

I won't be mad if he leaves or if he stays. Pratt is a good linebacker. His biggest problem is trying to rip the ball out, which is great when it works. But when it doesn't work, he gets carried 2 or 3 yards. Hopefully Golden will put an end to that. I'm sure he will dial him back to a 2 down linebacker.

howabout a trade to Indy where Lou landed for Kwity Paye?

Not familiar with Paye, but like I said I am not going to be upset either way whether he leaves or stays. I'm more focused on shoring up other positions.

I’m sure Indy will totally trade a 26 year old former 1st round pick who’s had at least 8 sacks in each of the last two seasons for a slow off-ball LB.

Meh, all that really means is that him and the defense were on the field A LOT last season. Plus Logan Wilson was out. He's probably not even sniffing top ten in tackles if Wilson is healthy.

Yep, I don't how many tackles I saw Pratt miss last year, but it was a lot whether he didn't wrap up or took terrible angles. It was bad.

He bulked up and sucks in coverage. 3rd down liability vs the pass. Still a good LB vs the run.
