A fourth-round pick in the 2022 draft, Dameon Pierce burst onto the scene as a rookie with 1,104 scrimmage yards (939 rushing) and five total touchdowns. His 84.8 rushing grade ranked sixth among qualified running backs, per Pro Football Focus. He also finished sixth in yards after contact per carry, fourth in missed tackles forced and 12th in explosive runs.

For reasons unknown, Pierce lost the starting job to Devin Singletary in the middle of last season under new offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik. He started just seven games and averaged 2.9 yards per carry in the Texans' new-look offense.

At this point, could Pierce be available for a 6th rounder? It would hurt to call HOU GM, but Stephen doesn't do that.

This is one of those things, where if this guy was on our team and we wanted to trade him, the Zoners would be all "he ran for 1200 yds 2 years ago! We'll get a 3rd for him!"

But since it's us trying to get him, the Zoners will be "we'll just trade them a 2029 7th rounder"

Rather pursue Dobbins if we're doing this

I want to draft running back it's like buying a new car I want one with no mileage NFL mileage anyway.
Running backs age and dog years in the NFL maybe not an important position on other teams but it's important on ours.

We need a fresh horse with no injuries mental problems off-field dilemmas or anything else remotely negative

A lot of things worked in NE when they had Brady. They won with their passing attack.
Defense had nothing to do with it?

I clearly remember an INT in the end zone that won the game, not Brady.

NE’s defenses were never that great. The INT that won the SB was a dumb call by Seattle. Had they handed the ball to Lynch they would have won the game. Lynch had over 100 yards.

Just draft Corum or Trey Benson in the 3rd and have them share with Dowdle/Duece/ M.Davis

Have you passed this info along to GM Jerry yet?
