Ivan Pace / Minnesota

Player Comparison

Transfer from Cincinnati. Good height and frame but looks like a safety lacking the mass and length desired at off the ball LB. Very good range – light feet and easy acceleration. Has the athletic profile to match up well with TEs and RBs in man coverage, although he lacks much experience. Range and foot quickness is especially useful in zone coverage. Solid read and react skills and is assignment responsible. Very instinctual and is rarely fooled. Secure, wrap-up tackler. Brother, Ivan, starts at LB for the Vikings as a similar under-sized off the ball LB. Should be a solid special teams contributor.
