Draft Rico Dowdle over Alec Pierce if both are on the board. This is a cross-position call, so raw RB and WR points are not the tiebreaker: Rico Dowdle is RB28 and No. 76 overall, 13 spots ahead of Alec Pierce at WR44 after the board weighs replacement value, weekly startability, ceiling, role resilience, and playoff runway. Alec Pierce remains a strong roster-build alternative, but Rico Dowdle is the cleaner pick unless verified opportunity falls below 36.1% or the accepted team-scoring band changes.
