Texansfan713 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) https://www.nfl.com/prospects/dameon-pierce/32005049-4524-5478-115c-8ae11dbeefa6 Quote Pierce was a four-year starter at Bainbridge High School, finishing in the top 10 of Georgia's state career rushing leaders (6,779 yards, 92 total touchdowns). He was a steady contributor for the Gators in his first two seasons, playing in all 13 games as a reserve in 2018 (69-424-6.1, two TDs rushing; 5-20-4.0 receiving) and in 12 games during his sophomore campaign (54-305-5.6, four TDs rushing; 4-30-7.5 receiving). Pierce landed the starting job in 2020, leading the team in rushing with 503 yards and four rushing scores on 106 carries (4.7 per; also 17-156-9.2 one TD receiving). He started once in 13 games in 2021 but still topped UF with 13 rushing scores (100-574-5.7) and contributed as a receiver (19-216-11.4, three TDs). Pierce had one of the best quotes of the year when asked why he was playing in the team's bowl game even though he had a Senior Bowl invite in hand: "Why? Because I'm a Gator, bro." -- by Chad Reuter I love that last sentence in the quote. Edited April 30, 2022 by Texansfan713 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tab Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Florida fans on Reddit all seem to be in agreement that he was massively underutilized at college. I liked the clips they had of him, looks spicy out on the field 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAtexansFAN_99 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I feel like he's really good at setting up blocks. Like he can push up between the tackles and trap defenders in there before he bounces outside, which he's also good at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pastor Dillon Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I wanted Spiller but this dude is a stud too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET80 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 He feels like a vastly underrated guy… like a Frank Gore or Chris Carson, a guy who will get tough yardage and critical plays when needed. Very satisfied with the pick. Would prefer Spiller, but I’m not crying on this one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie man Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Love the pick for you guys. His combine was very similar to Kareem Hunt. He’s probably your starter week 1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won't be the home run RB, but he'll grind out tough yards and add some talent to the backfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
