I am always one to say stats don't mean everything but they are a good building block to consider when ranking prospects. Let's look at the stats from this year.
Stats through 3 games...
Tackles
Pitcock 8
Patterson 5
Tackles for Loss
Pitcock 4
Patterson 2
Sacks
Pitcock 4 sacks for a loss of 30 yards
Patterson 0
How exactly again is Patterson making more plays than Pitcock? Pitcock has far better numbers and he is getting doubled more than Patterson. The increase in Pitcock's production this year deals with doing a better job against double teams because last year Patterson had more sacks and tackles for loss than Pitcock while Pitcock had more solo and total tackles.
2005 Numbers
Patterson 24 tackles (11 solo) 7.5 tackles for loss and 4 sacks 2 forced fumbles
Pitcock 28 tackles (15 solo) 3 tackles for loss 1 sack 1 interception 1 fumble recovery 2 forced fumbles 1 blocked punt
