....make a phone call and ask what Detroit wants for RB Deandre Swift???? This from Rotoworld:

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports the Lions have received calls from teams interested in acquiring D'Andre Swift.​

Swift's representation has been in touch with the Lions about dealing the fourth-year back after Detroit shockingly took RB Jahmyr Gibbs with the sixth pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. Gibbs' pass-catching acumen would seem to overlap with Swift's strengths as a receiver out of the backfield. Over 40 NFL games in three season, Swift has averaged 30 receiving yards on four receptions per game. He would be a valuable change-of-pace backfield option for teams lacking a pass-catching specialist. It seems unlikely Swift will remain in Detroit for very long.


In 3 seasons Swift has amassed the following stats:

364 attempts 1,680 yards 4.6 ypc 18 td's 156 receptions 1,198 yards 7.7 ypc 7 td's


He has 1-year remaining on his 2nd round rookie deal with a 2023 base salary of $1.7M

With Pollard still recovering from injury would this be a viable trade option depending on the asking price????

I live in Michigan so I get all the LIons games...Swift is soft and doesn't get the tough yards, which is why they're gonna ship him out tonight. DO NOT WANT. Much better off drafting a back in the 3rd round IMO

Agree, saw most of there games this year (fire stick and brother and law being a fan), would rather have the UCLA kid. Hard Pass for me!

We've heard the Jones's mention that MM wanted to get bigger in the trenches about 10 times now and they did just that on the D-Line. My best guess is IOL tonight followed by nothing but skill positions. I'll guess Avila. I know it would be a long drop but I think both Torrence and Schmitz go in front of him so there's a chance.
