Pratt Gone

For sure, we need it for the entire AFC North even. I have been getting tired of the last few years and us being the most finesse team of the Division.

That is why I liked bringing back Perine on Offense and adding Tahj Brooks as well to the RB room. I know Shemar isn't signed yet, but he is a physical
player, same with Knight and Barrett Carter.

Pratt has gotten bulkier and may have lost a 1/2 step on his overall speed, but where I think the image of "slow" is coming from is in perhaps guessing the wrong hole and being late to the play.

Yeah, if we are going off of college I can understand the comparison. Pratt was way faster and slimmer in college. But like you said, he has 
gotten bulkier and lost his speed. Don't understand why Pratt went this direction either as the new NFL is made more faster Linebackers now.
