Default Good article on Erik Swoope's 2016 season

Located here.

I have never heard of NumberFire before but I like how they did this analysis.

Bottom line is that Erik looked like a seasoned veteran last last year in some of those clips rather than a guy who has only played organized football at any level for 3 years. As the only slogan says, he has come a long way, baby.

We have our primary pass catching targets in Hilton, Doyle and Moncrief.

After that, some combo of Swoope, Aiken, Dorsett, Rogers and Gore/Turbin/Mack out of the backfield should suck up most of the rest of the targets.

There is an embarrassment of riches in those lists. I know that most national sports writers don't see it because they are not first round draft choices (except Dorsett whom has disappointed so far) but I have a ton of confidence in guys like Moncrief, Doyle Swoope, Rogers and Turbin. They are not our "starters" or "studs" but those guys are what makes an offense zoom.

Anyway, I agree that there is a reason that Ballard did not draft any TEs in a very TE heavy draft and that is because Swoope looks like he belongs and can excel.

Cheers,
