Title: NGT: Ivan Pace Jr.

I remember some on the board pounding the table for Pace ahead of and during the draft.

The fact that he went undrafted and is now the 2nd highest rated LB in the league is crazy:

Even after MM's career game last week, sure would be nice to have a young guy with upside in a position that's been bereft of real talent for a decade.

That would be me. I went on and on about two players that I wanted: Ivan Pace and Puka Nacua

Pace is a couple inches short of the "ideal" sized LB, but he put up ridiculous numbers and punished runners while also getting to the QB. WR Nacua has 30 receptions for 338 yds in his first three games in the NFL
