Now here’s an overly positive look at Ron Brace in 2010. I agree that Brace flashed a number of times in 2010, most notably on the fourth down goaline stop of Adrian Peterson.

An optimistic projection is that he could spell Shaun Ellis at left defensive end in the 4-3, that seems like his best fit in the front the Patriots are running now.

I’m sure the Pats would love to develop him into the starter there once Ellis is gone. He does look like he can be a strong run defender. The question of course remaining if he’ll be able to generate pass rush when opposing offenses pass on early downs.

He has good strength and has the ability to both anchor and push lineman in the backfield. The biggest thing is just staying healthy, if he does that we could see some positive things for Brace.
