Colts draft WR Alec Pierce - Round 2, Pick 53
 
Colts trade down and still are able to add to the WR room. Coach Reggie will be pleased.

Alec Pierce: big vertical target, red zone monster. Like that pick.

And the Colts biggest immediate need gets some attention.

Size + speed from Pierce, along with some toughness, given his defensive background.

So after all the discussions, the Colts do indeed address a glaring need: Ballard goes wide receiver with his second-rounder.

Pierce fits the mold (6-3, 211), is a former track athlete and should compete immediately for snaps.

NFL.com's comp on him is Donovan Peoples-Jones. That would be a solid get.

CBS comped him to David Terrell

Both Louis Riddick and Chris Simms used Jordy as a comp.

I just listened to the Chris Simms podcast of his top five WR where Pierce comes in at #3 and I am so fricking excited by him lining up on the outside opposite Pittman that it is crazy. Just need to have one of the young guys step up and grab the 3rd WR slot and we are cooking on oil.

After watching film on him last night, my comp is a bigger, faster version of his WR coach.

Reggie Wayne or Mike Brown?

He’s the quintessential Ballard pick. Elite traits but also productive.

Via Chad Henry, Colts midwest area scout, one of the things that they loved about Alec Pierce in the draft process was the idea of pairing him with Michael Pittman, Jr.

"Above the rim," Henry nicknames the tandem.

Asked about Pierce, Frank Reich likes him best on the outside.

Kravitz: "So Reggie Wayne's been here 10 minutes and he gets whatever he wants (in the draft)? Is that how it works?"

Chris Ballard: "That's exactly how it works."

Woods has a better chance than Pierce

After watching his highlights he reminds me of Darick Rodgers, he gets a lot of jump balls and good catches in traffic but didn’t see any YAC in his highlights
