Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce should compete right away for a starting role opposite Michael Pittman Jr., and part of that is due to how well he projects to fit within the offense.
Pierce’s size, speed and athletic prowess will go along way in meshing with veteran quarterback Matt Ryan. His ball skills should also allow him to earn the trust of the 36-year-old quarterback relatively quickly.
Pierce was featured on the list of best draft fits by Matt Bowen of ESPN, furthering the notion that this selection could have production very early.
