Worse draft in the Burrow Era

Knight has a better understanding of what's going on in front of him than Pratt did. As a former QB you can see him react to the checks/shifts and he also quickly recognizes the pass protection in front of him and triggers as a blitzer. 

Maybe he was, but he's not anymore. No one can watch his film from the last two years, especially last year, and say he's still a good tackler. He gets carried on almost every play. And I don't mean this to be Pratt bashing, I liked him and he was a big reason we went to the playoffs, but he is what his last season says he is....
