Alec PierceWRIND
High ceiling WR sleeper with ECR 71, ranked WR27; $84M guaranteed contract signals GM confidence in his role. Big-play ability: 21.3 yards per catch last year; doesn't require high volume to produce (1000 yards on 47 catches in 2024, 84 targets last year). 140 vacated targets available in Indianapolis; Pierce needs only 20-25 additional targets to reach 1200-yard season. Continuity with Daniel Jones (excellent before injury) provides stability. Averaged 65 yards per game last year; with modest target uptick can reach 80-85 yards per game average, translating to top-15 WR production. Andrew Erickson notes if Pierce had signed elsewhere, would be fade due to contract size, but continuity with same QB and system makes him high-ceiling play.

Alec Pierce is on your list. The ECR of 71 currently now...if, if Pierce had signed somewhere else, we'd be talking about him as a fade for the amount of money they're paying him. But because he resigned with the Colts and it's the same QB...over 21.3 yards per catch last year...last year he had a thousand yard season of just 47 catches...There's 140 vacated targets in Indianapolis...if he can see an uptick of 20, 25 targets...you can see Alec Pierce jump up significantly this season.
