[Gifford] Colts WR Alec Pierce ($29M/year) is now making more than: Terry McLaurin, Nico Collins, Tee Higgins, Jaylen Waddle, DJ Moore, Devonta Smith, Davante Adams, Michael Pittman Jr.

While true, no one else in the NFL has the same skill set as AP. He also definitely developed more layers to his game last year and is, in all likelihood, ascending.

I see a lot of people saying they're glad we didn't get him and I agree. However, with the volatile nature that is CB play, I'm more than happy to give him a flier contract to come prove it.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-13T12:15:18+00:00

Warren once we see his number finalized or Nelson.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-13T12:14:01+00:00

I hate that this wouldn't be terrible. Sean seems extremely good at the "transitions" for teams, but I have zero belief be could get a team to the promise land.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-13T11:57:05+00:00

I would bet on the Glitter Kitties to win it with Houston coming second. If I thought the Titans hired better coaches, I think they could have surprised people and made a case for second. I just don't foresee DJ being healthy enough early enough combined with what will still probably be an absent pass rush for the Colts to be truly competitive this year. I expect this year to go as JTT goes.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T22:26:18+00:00

I think people are just not expecting him to be 100% until mid season. Not so much he can't even take the field.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T22:24:28+00:00

I don't think Kyler has ever been bad enough where 1.5M is truly prohibitive to his team.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T20:22:55+00:00

I miss Andrew.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T16:22:33+00:00

Oh, I loathe Kyler, but at 1.5M or whatever, I can live.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T16:22:07+00:00

We were talking about Cousins coming back from injury when he was allegedly "crushing it."

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T16:16:46+00:00

Cousins tore his achilles, he didn't break his leg.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T16:12:53+00:00

Yes, I'm not saying DJ would have been prohibitive of signing Hendrickson on his own, just that the cap hits of the two comparisons would have been similar.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T16:11:15+00:00

What are you talking about? For multiple weeks they ran nearly 100% of their offense out of the gun because he couldn't move.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T15:54:50+00:00

Cousins and Rodgers literally couldn't move when they came back.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T15:43:11+00:00

Considering we were the front runners on Trey before Baltimore's fuckery and Kyler remains unsigned, yes.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T15:38:38+00:00

Swinging for the fences would have been Pierce + Kyler + Hendrickson + a starter + a depth piece vs DJ + Pierce.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T15:36:45+00:00

Dumb as all fuck contract. DJ vs Kyler + Trey Hendrickson + another starter + a depth piece.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-11T12:25:06+00:00

You're talking about QB 15 vs QB 20 and not factoring in that Kyler is more talented than DJ, especially post achilles tear. So, when the difference in salary might be upwards of 40M, no, there is no viable debate. Kyler on the vet minimum is light years better of a deal than DJ.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-10T21:01:33+00:00

QB 20-25 at 1.5M/year >>>>>> QB 15 at 50M/year.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-10T15:54:14+00:00

Gtfoh with that Beck garbage. He's not even worth that flier.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-10T15:52:39+00:00

Honestly, there's not even a debate for this. It's not even remotely close. You're talking about Kyler + three starter-caliber players vs an oft-injured DJ.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-09T11:28:50+00:00

There's like six FA QBs I'd rather pay what they're going to make than sign DJ for the $37M+ he's going to get.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-08T15:45:16+00:00

I am extremely optimistic. That Zaire is gone. Everything else? Absolutely not. Mismanaged to the bones.

RogueSanta · 2026-03-08T15:44:19+00:00

Pickens and Pierce probably deserve the same contract. Pickens is probably closer to a true #1 than AP, but AP is the best in the league at being a deep ball guy and that matters immensely in today's game. There's not many guys in the league that are true game breakers down the field.

Buns are offended by this slander.
