Fantasy Football Happy Hour with Matthew Berry on Alec Pierce

Podcast7 High Upside Players to Target with RotoPatAugust 26, 2026

From the episode

This is a, you know, five to six target, a game guy. And so, like I said, I think he's a top, his current consensus is a top 40 wide receiver. I think that's right.

STACKED’s take

Pierce is a low-volume, high-upside big-play threat for weekly lineups.

Matthew Berry notes Alec Pierce is not a high-volume target earner, projecting him for 5-6 targets per game rather than 8-10. While Pierce is a consensus top-40 wide receiver, Berry advises drafters not to get cute, as Pierce will have weeks with low reception totals but possesses the big-play ability to win weeks with high yardage and touchdowns.
