A column asking who benefits isn't news, it's a Tuesday exercise. Warren was already the alpha here with a top-45 sharp rank and premium TE scoring in this league; he doesn't need Pierce's absence to matter. Downs is the actual beneficiary, and a soft 42.5 total with Indy trailing means garbage-time volume, not efficiency. Start Warren without thinking, use Downs as a flex if you're desperate, and don't pay a premium for either off one column.
