Ryan Swope
I really liked what I saw from this kid whenever I got the chance to watch A&M play this year. Walter has him going somewhere in round 2-4. Anybody else interested if he is there at the top of round 3. I think he can be a Jordy Nelson type player for us.

Not really as he seems to be more of a possession receiver. The Chiefs need someone with speed to be a deep threat.

He was a track stud in high school and has some good open field speed, but yeah he isn't really much of a deep threat.. Plays a little small, but he has great instincts. Id take him over McCluster, Wiley.

He's probably closer to...don't shoot me...Wes Welker. He's a better option than McCluster or Wiley but don't really see it as a need. |

He's a lot bigger then Welker which is why I tried to avoid that comparison amongst other reasons. He just seemed like a tough kid that shined in big games.

He's definitely bigger than Welker but when you watch him play, he moves like a much smaller guy. I like Swope a lot. I just think we have bigger needs. |

FYI, reports out of the Senior Bowl are that Swope is the toughest WR on the field. Hasn't impressed with his catching yet but apparently his run blocking is superb.

I know what it is that reminds me of Welker - he takes really short, choppy steps when he's mid-route. He looks like a fullback at times.

How big is he? Nelson is like 6-3 205 right?

Swope reminds me of a RB in WR clothing. Nelson isn't that, at all. |

Wilson and Swope on the team would upgrade the toughness quite a bit which this team could use. |
