Draft Brian Thomas Jr. over Alec Pierce if both are on the board. Brian Thomas Jr. is WR35 and No. 83 overall, 4 spots ahead, with a 146.7-point median and 181.7-point high end versus 129.7 and 168.9 for Alec Pierce. The role split (26.4% vs 28.9%) helps explain the separation; Alec Pierce still has a real bull-case path, but Brian Thomas Jr. is the cleaner pick unless verified opportunity falls below 21.1% or the accepted team-scoring band changes. Rebuild the matchup layer if opponent personnel, coaching, projected strength, or player usage changes materially.
