A March 9 in the Annapolis Colts while receiver Alec Pierce plans to test free agency, leaving the team potentially without its top deep ball thread. Pierce respects the organization, but feels ready to see what else is out there. That creates a gap next to Michael Pittman Jr. in head coach Shane Steikens passing attack. One strong option is Rashid Shaheed, who's turned into a league standout for explosive plays and returns after Stints with New Orleans in Seattle. His speed would stretch defenses vertically and adds special teams value. Mike Evans stands out too, as a proven big target with red zone dominance and physical play. Pairing him with Pittman could form a tough duo for contested catches and play action schemes. Meanwhile, Juan Jennings offers grit with solid blocking, third down reliability and yards after catch. He's not the fastest, but fits the Colts run heavy style perfectly. With cap room and a flexible offense, the Colts could land any of these guys on deals, from 10 million to over 50 million, over two or three years.

Keeping their attack dynamic no matter what happens with Pierce.
