"The Patriots have signed another draft pick, locking up nose tackle Ron Brace. Brace's agent, Nate Haber, announced the news via his Twitter feed, saying that Brace had agreed to a four-year deal with the club with roughly $2.82 million in guarantees (Boston.com)".
The Patriots picked this guy, because they are worried they are not going to be able to keep Wilfork after this year. It was a smart move to sign a guy this year, so at least he can learn the system for a year before he might have to take over. I am not completely sold on this guy, but he is big, and the Patriots are usually good at developing defensive linemen.
The Patriots still need to sign Chung before the season starts. I have not read anything yet about how close that deal is. The other draft picks that are not signed are McKenzie, who is out for the season after tearing his ACL during rookie mini-camp, offensive lineman George Bussey, and long-snapper Jake Ingram.
