he's not as good as his contract suggests that he is. Brian Thomas had a 1,300-yard season. Last year, Alec Pierce's career high was 1,003 yards. He did get to four digits by three yards. The year prior...he had 824 yards. He had 37 catches.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Alec Pierce's 1,003-yard career high trails Brian Thomas' 1,300-yard season.

The source argues Alec Pierce is not as good as his contract suggests; his career high is 1,003 yards (just over 1,000), compared to Brian Thomas' 1,300-yard season; in a two-year sample (2022-2023), Pierce had 824 yards and 37 catches in one year and 1,003 yards in another, described as a 'Taequann Thornton role' but only 'massively upgraded' from Thornton's 19 catches (Pierce had 47 last year). The source notes injury has been a factor in Pierce's fantasy underperformance this year.
