Alec Pierce Could Be A Red-Zone Weapon
2 years agoThe Athletic's James Boyd expects Indianapolis Colts rookie wide receiver Alec Pierce to see more red-zone targets this year than Parris Campbell, given Pierce's physical attributes (6-foot-3, 211 pounds) and his ability to win jump balls. The 53rd overall pick in this year's draft looked the part in training camp and is a more versatile and valuable option than Campbell, who has had an injury riddled career to this point. Neither receiver is likely to be selected in 12-team leagues to begin the season, but Pierce is one to watch early on. Michael Pittman Jr., who will be quarterback Matt Ryan's top target, is a breakout candidate and has WR1 upside in 2022 in fantasy.
