The ideal schematic fit for Swanson is a traditional power-gap blocking scheme that prioritizes strength and mauling at the point of attack.
Swanson projects as a Year 1 starter at center, with the ceiling to be a reliable and consistent interior line anchor for a decade.
He would be a poor fit in a ZBS (Zone Blocking Scheme) where he would be asked to consistently reach and cut off defenders on the back side.
A powerful, pro-ready center whose strength and football IQ make him a plug-and-play starter in a power run scheme.
Selected #76 overall in Round 3 of the 2014 NFL Draft by Detroit Lions out of Arkansas.
