There are actually quite a few people that think Allen is a better pure WR than Swain, but that Swain got his spot because of special teams. Either way, nice to have a big target (6-4).

Makes sense, let's see what he has
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Let's see if he gets a fade into the endzone this year for a jumpball.

Who knows? If Finley is out for a while he might get a look or two in the red zone.

Tough break for Swain, I liked him on special teams.

I don't really expect him to play at all except for ST barring another injury. We'll just go 3 WR, 2 TE or 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 HB in passing situations.
