Alec Pierce vs Mack HollinsWho should you start in 2026 fantasy football?

Alec Pierce is the better fantasy start for 2026, averaging 10.7 PPG to Mack Hollins's 6.0 in 2025. Full head to head breakdown below.

The Bottom Line

Alec Pierce is the better fantasy play this season.

Alec Pierce has the edge, but it is not a runaway. The 4.7-PPG advantage is real (10.7 to 6.0), and Alec Pierce's 6 touchdowns show scoring upside. Mack Hollins is the buy-low candidate if recent production has dipped, because the talent gap is smaller than the numbers suggest.

Moderate confidence: stats favor the leader, but matchup variance could flip this weekly.

Fantasy Tiers

Alec Pierce: Tier 3 (Flex/Starter) WR (ranked #22 at the position). Mack Hollins: Tier 5 (Deep League) WR (ranked #99 at the position). Among the top 50 wide receivers this season, Alec Pierce is producing at 49% of elite pace and Mack Hollins at 27%. That ranking gap means Alec Pierce carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Alec Pierce vs Mack Hollins: The Full Breakdown

Two wide receivers who will land on plenty of the same rosters in 2026. Alec Pierce (Indianapolis Colts) finished the 2025 season averaging 10.7 fantasy points per game in 15 games. Mack Hollins (New England Patriots) came in at 6.0 PPG over 15 games. The gap is real but not insurmountable with the right matchup.

Alec Pierce carries a 4.7-point PPG advantage from the 2025 season. That baseline matters, but it is one input among several. Matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and injury reports move the needle week to week, which is why the best answer changes depending on when you are asking.

Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Alec Pierce turned 84 targets into 1003 yards and 6 touchdowns, while Mack Hollins converted 65 looks into 550 yards and 2 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.

One scheduling note: Alec Pierce is off Week 13 and Mack Hollins Week 14. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

If you can acquire Alec Pierce at a discount because your league-mates undervalue wide receiver production, do it. Mack Hollins is a reasonable sell-high candidate if his recent games have spiked above his season average. Dynasty outlook: Alec Pierce (age 26) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value. Mack Hollins (age 32) is in the later years of production. Still a redraft asset, but dynasty value is declining.
