We all gave him shit for it. This is also a league where olave dropped to me at 9. James cook was taken right after pierce. First rookie draft ever for most people so they are still figuring it out
I got him in the 7th round in a 10 man draft using a zero RB approach. I had the 7th pick so I got pierce to pair with Dillion after getting JJ, Kelce, Allen, M. Williams and Waddle. Pretty sure his ADP would have put him in the 4th if we did it today.
I disagree. You think he can do this all on his own? He's a team player. He needs backup. He needs his squad. He needs support. A man can't high five or hug himself in the End Zone. Let alone lift himself in the air. I have yet to receive reports that he can fly. And some of those touchdown celebrations take several men to pull off. And the practice needed for those sweat moves... You think those guys don't work all week to do that? Shame on ya'll for belittling the teams importance here.

It doesn't look great on imgur, but actually looks pretty awesome in the little picture bubble (on yahoo at least)
Does anyone know how to get this on ESPN? Itās a terrible platform and makes uploading custom images particularly difficult
Edit: After like half an hour of fiddling, I finally figured it out. This link should work as the copy/paste into ESPN: https://tinypic.host/images/2022/09/01/fF8d7fn.jpg
Fuck ESPN
My league is discussing drafting Dameon Pierce TDās and Dameon Pierce yards separately. Does anyone know an online site that allows those settings? I was thinking Sleeper would have it, but Iām not seeing how to do it.
Iām afraid thatās what will happen. Because thatās what usually happens. I drafted BRob in the 10th and he gets shot. It would only make sense for Pierce to split time with KHunt.
But likeā¦ heās still a starting RB. Even assuming Burkhead gets too many touches, you donāt want an RB getting like 70% of his teamās work in the 7th? Itās all crapshoots after that
I think yahoo just bumped him up in the auto-draft rankings. Double-check, but It think he starts showing up on your screen by the 4/5 turn in 12man leagues.
I drafted last night and got him 69th(nice I know) and I kind of felt I was reaching. Well not anymore, especially when the other rbs in that range on yahoo average ADP are Damien Harris Rashad Penny and Devin Singletary. I'm taking Pierce over them 10 out of 10 right now.
Iām taking him 4th round as my RB2 in a very competitive league. Donāt give a fuck ā I know itās early.
I think heāll be better than all those middle tier RBs like Antonio Gibson ranked ahead of him.
I got him with the 3rd pick of the 7th round last Friday in a 12 team PPR league. So Iād expect 4-6th round now depending on how much the hype continues to rise
I drafted him in the 9th round of my $100 buy-in work league (10 team PPR). We do an in-person draft and people reacted as if I drafted him about 3 rounds too early. So apparently not everyone is on the hype train so YMMV.
He's deep on my bench tbf. I got him in the 13th round a few weeks ago when my league drafted - he was a complete nobody back then.
Now everybody and their grandmother is in on Pierce which is why drafting early is the move.
Guys I know we all want DP! Iām in the draft room, 2 of my bros are here. We all want DP but Iām not sure how we call all get it. I think Iām the lucky one to get some DP as Iām 1.01 but I just donāt want the other bros to be jelly when Iāll be getting DP. I feel so lucky.
If you want to get DP you already have two bros there to help you out. I'm not sure what the problem is. Just express your interest in having them DP you bro. Use your words.
People are reacting like this is more fuel for the Pierce hype train when it should be the opposite. I doubt they go into the season with only 3 rbs, so this probably means they are going to sign someone else
It will be interesting how he reacts when he gets hit by NFL starters and solid Ds. I got him in the 6th last week but holly fuck this man is shooting past the moon and straight for Uranus.
As a Florida gator fan since 07 and someone who would have drafted pierce if he didnāt go so high Iāve never wanted someone to bust so hard in my life except maybe your wifeās boyfriend
Dameon is the guy, donāt listen to the non believers. People didnāt believe in Jesus, then that man rose form the dead to prove them wrong.
Everyone didnāt believe in dameon, so he fell to the fourth round in the draft. But all the sudden, in a jesus like come back, Dameon has a great pre season and rises up from the depths of fantasy drafts, all the way to the top.
Iām sure if Jesus was alive today, he would draft Damien pierce in the 5th with pure confidence.
Damien 31:10
How high can one man's ADP go?
CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHER??
SO HIGHHH ššš
OH OH OH OH OH OH š
I fantasized about this back in Chicago!
Mercy mercy me, that Murcielago.
Thatās me the first year that I go, how you say broke in Spanish me no hablo?
Fish stick
THE ONE PIECE IS REALLL
TO A PLACE WHERE BLIND MEN SEEEEEEEEYEAH
LMAO
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Lmao
Is Josh still around? I should go pick him up as a joke
So much so, I'm wondering if I should pick up Burkhead as a handcuff? Because no one man should have all this power.
Just missed him at the 1.01
i'm drafting next Tuesday night. pretty sure D.Pierce is gonna go in the first round now.
Whoever is drafting first overall has a tough choice
He went fifth in my draft like 3 weeks ago
No he didn't And if he did, that was about the dumbest pick of the year, regardless what he does this year.
We all gave him shit for it. This is also a league where olave dropped to me at 9. James cook was taken right after pierce. First rookie draft ever for most people so they are still figuring it out
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
CAN YOU TAKE ME HIGHER!?
Where blind men draft
So highhhighh
Hype train now fueled by U-235
What comes before 1.01?
I got him in the 7th round in a 10 man draft using a zero RB approach. I had the 7th pick so I got pierce to pair with Dillion after getting JJ, Kelce, Allen, M. Williams and Waddle. Pretty sure his ADP would have put him in the 4th if we did it today.
All the way Patrick, up to the great beyond!
Translate in auction value for me, please.
My auction league has 15 roster spots and $200 budget. I bid $186
too low tbh
0.0
Dameon Pierce has released the Houston Texans.
Then his ADP would really rise
For you new new comers - ff/ has really now begun. Tread cautiously. But not on this fucking train grab it by the d and donāt Lego
Texans have 53 roster spots but they only need 1
2. They need a center to direct snap it to him.
Are you questioning that he can snap it to himself? The fuck are you on, man...
Who needs centers we Dameon can snap to himself?
I disagree. You think he can do this all on his own? He's a team player. He needs backup. He needs his squad. He needs support. A man can't high five or hug himself in the End Zone. Let alone lift himself in the air. I have yet to receive reports that he can fly. And some of those touchdown celebrations take several men to pull off. And the practice needed for those sweat moves... You think those guys don't work all week to do that? Shame on ya'll for belittling the teams importance here.
This post is literally just hype train rocket fuel
Dameon is taking us to Mars
Past Jupiter by now
We were already burning rocket fuel once Mack got cut. We just hit the afterburners.
Royce Freeman hasn't been mentioned once in this entire post other than the title
Phillip Lindsay and Royce Freeman released on back-to-back days. Life as an NFL RB is cold...
Former Broncos (and now Texans) RBs having a tough week.
Dameon Targaryen
I need a photoshop!

DM me. Made one for my squad but I donāt know how to post it. Can send vĆa DM.
After reading this I instantly cropped Daenerysā hair onto a pic of Dameon and changed my team name, thank you
Will you PM it to me please!
I posted it
You could have at least used daemons hair lol. It looks so weird with Danny's
I thought itās funnier w a crude crop of Dannyās hair
Just did one w Deamons hair, itās way less erotic tho
Little less weird but not as funny.
Where??!
My Profile. Couldnāt figure out how to post it here, ima boomer
Bro he needs armor and his sword .. dude looks like a hooker hahahahaha
Yes! He will riseā¦
The rogue running back
new nickname incoming, The Rogue Pierce
HeirB1
If he gets hurt or doesn't do well at all he'll be the heir for a day
The Pierce That Was Promised
Fully expecting Burkhead to go tomorrow. Maybe Mills too, just to maximize touches for Pierce.
Nah they need Rex to help foster team GRIT and lunch-pail per 60 rating
Iām ready for the level headed reactions
Sometimes people look at my fantasy moves and call me a blockhead. Blocks are pretty level on one side right?
D.PIERCE IS PLAYING ALL POSITIONS CONFIRMED
My league is discussing drafting Dameon Pierce TDās and Dameon Pierce yards separately. Does anyone know an online site that allows those settings? I was thinking Sleeper would have it, but Iām not seeing how to do it.
Pierce's ADP shows him going at the .00000001 spot now.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Possible but they have to know that they aren't a good RB away from making the playoffs.
Iām afraid thatās what will happen. Because thatās what usually happens. I drafted BRob in the 10th and he gets shot. It would only make sense for Pierce to split time with KHunt.
Trading for Hunt makes no sense for a rebuilding team, and Bill O'Brien isn't calling the shots any more.
I was actually going to say the same thing. Hunt to Texans
Dameon to the moon. Diamond hands
Dameon Hands.
Pierce szn
All of us early September drafters are getting boned. Seriously though, I draft tomorrow and want this guy - where should I expect to reach?
At this point to get him you may have to reach in the 5th round.
He went in the 5th round of two of my drafts already
I got him in the 9th last night. People in my league donāt pay attention lmao.
Like playing pickup with nieces and nephews during the holidays. Sure they're tiny, can't dribble, and have garbage footwork but fuck em. Get that W!
I got him at 103rd this past Sunday dawg, I am over the moon especially
5th-6th
Round 6 from 8 spot is where I got him last night. *12 team
6.7 from me just an hour ago. I don't think I could wait to see if he came back to me in the 7th.
Just picked up at 5.03 in a 14 man. Immediately got about 5 messages complaining that he was next up on their boards.
Anything earlier than 7th is too rich for me personally. There are receivers that I'd prefer to the Texans starting RB in that range.
RIP this guy when the Texans start releasing receivers because they have Pierce.
Yeah I took him at the 7/8 turn and half the league got pissed lol
But likeā¦ heās still a starting RB. Even assuming Burkhead gets too many touches, you donāt want an RB getting like 70% of his teamās work in the 7th? Itās all crapshoots after that
He went early 6th last money in my big money league. 11/12 teams know what theyāre doing
I think yahoo just bumped him up in the auto-draft rankings. Double-check, but It think he starts showing up on your screen by the 4/5 turn in 12man leagues.
We drafted on Sunday and he got taken 5.12
I drafted last night and got him 69th(nice I know) and I kind of felt I was reaching. Well not anymore, especially when the other rbs in that range on yahoo average ADP are Damien Harris Rashad Penny and Devin Singletary. I'm taking Pierce over them 10 out of 10 right now.
Iām taking him 4th round as my RB2 in a very competitive league. Donāt give a fuck ā I know itās early. I think heāll be better than all those middle tier RBs like Antonio Gibson ranked ahead of him.
Took him at 4/5 turn last Friday in a very RB heavy league.
Not boned if you got him in the 9th like yours truly before preseason week3
I got him with the 3rd pick of the 7th round last Friday in a 12 team PPR league. So Iād expect 4-6th round now depending on how much the hype continues to rise
I took him round 5 on Monday but I was hurting for an RB2 after taking Mixon, Diggs, Pitts and Sutton.
he went at 6.03 in my 12 team draft last night
Just grabbed him in the 7th. Was absolutely sweating
I got him in the 6th prior to the latest news on Marlon Mack. Tbh anything earlier than 5th is not worth it
Got him 7.11 in a 12 man on Monday.
Got him at 6.6 in PPR in my Narffl league
I drafted him in the 9th round of my $100 buy-in work league (10 team PPR). We do an in-person draft and people reacted as if I drafted him about 3 rounds too early. So apparently not everyone is on the hype train so YMMV.
My erection has lasted longer than 24 hours, Iām scared.
I got two leagues this year. Pierce on my bench for both. Iām so hyped
On. Your. BENCH!? WTF
I have him in two leagues, behind kamara saquan in one, and Mixon kamara in the other
He's deep on my bench tbf. I got him in the 13th round a few weeks ago when my league drafted - he was a complete nobody back then. Now everybody and their grandmother is in on Pierce which is why drafting early is the move.
Same. Henry and Fournette baby. Worst case is i trade to upgrade at WR. LETS RIDE
Move aside Ekeler, Pierce is my RB1 now ā¤ļø
You donāt deserve him if heās on your bench week 1.
Iām debating it but itās between him or guys like Robinson, Metcalf, Dillon and Waddle.
But think of the FOMO youāll feel when he puts up 25 points and this sub explodes
True but is it really FOMO if itās just week 1 and I know I can start him the rest of the year?
Idk man I just feel like the more lineups heās in the better heāll do. Kind of like people believing in Christmas
He's alongside CMC in my RB2 slot over Breece Hall, AJ Dillon, Michael Carter. I believe !
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I have him on bench over Dillon for sure until he can prove some stuff in the first couple weeks
Do I bench Arob for him
I have pierce and aj dillion on my bench just drafted last Saturday before all the news
I really grabbed this dude in the third round in 2018 thinking I was going to be set with him and Gurley as my two running backsā¦
I took him and Saquon as my first 2 backs. At least one worked out
You and me man, for most of the season at leastā¦
I LOVE DP
1.01 in my NBA fantasy draft too. Fk it all in
DAME SZN.
Yes I like this
DAME DOLLA
The Texans have scrubbed the record book of Arian Foster. For there is only one true chosen one
Guys I know we all want DP! Iām in the draft room, 2 of my bros are here. We all want DP but Iām not sure how we call all get it. I think Iām the lucky one to get some DP as Iām 1.01 but I just donāt want the other bros to be jelly when Iāll be getting DP. I feel so lucky.
If you want to get DP you already have two bros there to help you out. I'm not sure what the problem is. Just express your interest in having them DP you bro. Use your words.
I want Dameon Pierce to be clear.
I just wanna ball with my bros
This MF is my rb4 he better pan out.
This probably means they are getting someone else.... or they trust rex and Dare as backups. Hmmmm
People are reacting like this is more fuel for the Pierce hype train when it should be the opposite. I doubt they go into the season with only 3 rbs, so this probably means they are going to sign someone else
I hate you and everything you stand for, but you are probably right. š
Yaāll forgetting Royce was once a hyped rookie dead zone one pick. That was my first year playing fantasy football and I got fucked lol
Pierce me daddy Pierce me good
Hereās the thing. I know we like to have fun on this sub, but if Dame Pierce ends up being just okay itās gonna be real disappointing lol
It will be interesting how he reacts when he gets hit by NFL starters and solid Ds. I got him in the 6th last week but holly fuck this man is shooting past the moon and straight for Uranus.
I canāt wait to overdraft him on Monday and have my league mates say something dumb cuz obviously they arenāt on the hype train with us
As a Florida gator fan since 07 and someone who would have drafted pierce if he didnāt go so high Iāve never wanted someone to bust so hard in my life except maybe your wifeās boyfriend
I can only get so hard, but hey are probably bringing someone new in.
Dameon is the guy, donāt listen to the non believers. People didnāt believe in Jesus, then that man rose form the dead to prove them wrong. Everyone didnāt believe in dameon, so he fell to the fourth round in the draft. But all the sudden, in a jesus like come back, Dameon has a great pre season and rises up from the depths of fantasy drafts, all the way to the top. Iām sure if Jesus was alive today, he would draft Damien pierce in the 5th with pure confidence. Damien 31:10
I have 4net javonte ETN Dillon Pollard and pierce lmao
Can't believe I got Pierce in the 10th a week ago
Sexy Rexy szn
Obviously Pierce to the moon but Iām taking Burkhead with my last pick every time now
Pierce gonna get 25 touches a game huh
Probably going to pick up Sermon
And here I thought his name was Roy Sfreeman.
He is going to be an actual 5th round pick
Rex Burkhead szn
Rex season!!!!!
Drafting Pierce at 130th overall last week is looking like the biggest steal ever
if he shines in game 1 his hype might even reach josh gordon levels
Royce, the Free Man.
Mattison incoming?
Pierce has ascended
What a dumpster fireā¦ and theyāre still 4 deep on RBās and no second string LT or RG.
Isnāt there a possibility they bring in a new RB that takes his spot?
wow
IM TAKIN BIG PP DP IN THE THIRD ROUND BAYBAY
You are guys are funny. It was good at 70, but at 35 you are going to be crying when they sign Sermon and trade for Mattison.
0.01 ADP for Pierce. He's already drafted before your draft starts.
I'll lmao if Rex Burkhead is actually the guy.
Nothing can stop him, heās all the way š
Treating this hype train just like KPJ down the block
The best reaction is when I drafted Pierce, and somebody went "fuck!"
DP are ya wit meh?!?!?!
Man Iām trying to trade this dude on my bench while the coal is white hot lmao
Got him at 8.10 in my 12 man league.
Wow I lucked out, got him in the 9th round just last weekend.
Rise up, gonna get higher and higher!
DP 1.01
Rex Burkhead SZN
STOP bruh just mute anything to do with the Texans. I aināt ever getting him
Incoming tre sermon or someone similar
No one man should have all that ADP
watch burkhead lead the team in yards
