Man, if I was Pierce I wouldn't have come back. If I was the Redskins...I wouldn't have brought Pierce back at the price the Giants were paying. He's not a playmaker just a good player. What do I even base that on? One year. One. He played for the league minimum and got it done in a contract year. That's not unusual. If I were Pierce I would feel like, "If they thought I could play I would have gotten a little more money or a few more years last year." I don't think Pierce is a difference maker. I heard some guy call Sirius and go off about the Skins letting him get away. I don't think he's gonna hurt them that much. He was always in the right place and rarely made mistakes, but that's as far as it goes. He isn't a Pro Bowler, I don't know if he will be. Bottom Line: He isn't worth all that money because he showed up for 16 games.
