From the episode
I just get a little bit nervous because the foot injury. We know in OTAs and minicamp, he talked about the fact that he might not be ready until September... among wide receivers with 50 or more targets, Alec Pierce had the highest average depth of target of 19.4 yards... Daniel Jones went to his first read on 100% of his attempts over 20 plus yards last year
STACKED’s take
Pierce's WR32 ranking risky; foot injury, unsustainable deep-ball dependency, Jones regression concern.
Pierce is ranked WR32 in ECR (74th overall), but the source is concerned about his sustainability despite ceiling outcomes last year; he had a foot injury that may delay his availability until September, and his 2025 production was heavily dependent on deep balls (19.4 yards average depth of target, highest among 50+ target receivers; 477 of 1,003 yards on 20+ yard plays). Daniel Jones' deep-ball accuracy last year was anomalous (100% first-read targeting on 20+ yard attempts), and if teams adjust coverage or if Jones regresses, Pierce's production could decline significantly. The source worries about drafting injured players in training camp and prefers Pierce in PPR over half-PPR formats.
