this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; 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....

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. |

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting
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...

Re: 2022 NFL Draft: Draft Prospects, Scouting
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. |
