Pierce has an All-American ceiling to go with his elite size, standing at over 6-feet and 225 pounds with the frame to add another 15 pounds of muscle without sacrificing athleticism. He really shines when asked to fill a gap to stop the run with the ideal instincts to hit the right spot at the right time. Pierce also has the athleticism to make a move to safety if the Buckeye coaching staff decides to make that move.
