I read it , and my first thought was “wow”……











Immediately followed by, “good pick”.
I fully expected a "WTF" reaction but like I said big fan of Pierces abilities as a RB. He was suppose to be my sleeper pick for early second round in drafts. Him being a time share RB in college and not having a good combine I was hoping I could pull that off, but the draft was so bad for FF that I could see he was going to move up in rookie drafts for teams needing a RB. Pierce likes to bounce to the outside and he's does that fine, but what I like is the way he manages to get way more yards inside then you would think, with his quick feet and enough power to fight through tackles he's just impressive running inside. I also like RBs who fight for yards and he does that .

And his competition is a torn achillies, a 20 something mega bust, and a 32 year old try hard..couldn't have asked for a better spot (unless you wanted him to fall down the board :) )

Ever so briefly, I considered him at 1.1

Likely end up being what I should've done

I think he earns more yards on his own then either Hall or Walker but would been REALLY ballsy to take him first.

The first reach in the draft, this being a standard scoring league I wanted a RB with a early pick. Never know if I'll be in a position to draft one next season and WRs are always available to draft. Besides I'm a fan of Pierce talents and there just isn't many RBs I like in this draft.
I like the pick. We actually got him with the 2.9 in the other other one that's started. That one is superflex and the four quarterbacks already went, but still I couldn't believe he fell that far.

Four QBs already went ( ahead of Pierce I assume)? That's nuts! Even for superflex.

All this Pierce love.
And Harold doubled up in both dynasty leagues.
Hope it works out for you.
I dont trust any offense where Lovie is the HC.
