Ryan Mace remains a classic playmaking Spider DB with return-game juice
Ryan Mace’s profile shows a versatile Richmond defensive back with special-teams value and real explosiveness, including a career punt-return average of 9.1 yards and a 17.5-yard average in the 2006 season, which ranked ninth nationally. Richmond also highlighted him as a senior contributor with big-play ability, including a memorable fumble recovery in the end zone, so the appeal is more than box-score stuff: he brings suddenness, field-flipping potential, and a nose for momentum plays. If a team wants a defender who can tilt hidden yardage and punish mistakes, Mace fits the bill.
