WR Alec Pierce is probably the perfect combination of scheme fit and value if we can get him in the 2nd round. He’ll be a plug and play Z-receiver with excellent physicality and run blocking ability.

I'd still rather sign DJ Chark to let Pierce develop behind him, but the depth there would be elite by season's end...

White-boy comparison aside, Pierce compares to former Green Bay WR Jordy Nelson; straight line speed to get extra cushion off the line; mental toughness to win at the catch-point...

Translation - Alex Pierce has traits of a dawg.

High points the ball, 50/50 specialist and can separate.

I’ll be highly disappointed if we don’t grab a WR early in the draft.

I trade Kamara, we could get really good picks for him even after his Vegas ordeal.

Dameon was impressive at the Sr Bowl; but have reservations he only saw light load at Florida, 3rd down back load - that's concerning if you want to take him before R4...

Ironhead has another boy going pro this year: Michigan St HB/TE Connor Heyward. He played running back for four years and moved to more of a H-Back/TE role this past season.

He’s about 6-0, 230 and I don’t have to tell you he’s a tough runner. He definitely doesn’t have breakaway speed but he did return kicks so there’s a little elusiveness there and pretty good hands in the passing game.

I think there’s a lot of potential there.
