From the episode

The guy is the only wide receiver they have. I'm not sold on downs. They have Keenan Allen. He's probably pending a looming suspension

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Alec Pierce is a high-value target due to the Colts' lack of receiver depth.

Despite being banged up, Alec Pierce is a strong value pick at 99 overall because the Colts lack depth at wide receiver. He is effectively the only viable option, as Underdog. They is not sold on Josh Downs and expects a potential suspension for Keenan Allen.
