I sounds funny, but they missed Swaim in that game that he was out injured.

He is productive. He isnt sexy (on the field that is), and may not every be a plus starter, but in the short and intermediate passing game he is productive

Ill say this, I think Swaim allows you to look at Evan Engram type TE's in the draft.

Finally swaim and Dak look like they've practiced together.

 

[jazzcat22]

Swaim did more today than Goedert did for the Eagles.
Heck even more than Ertz.

 

[HungryLion]

We literally had the second best tight end in NFL history playing for us, the past how many years.

And 4 catches for 40 yards is outstanding?

He was “ok”

 

[Zman5]

He's exceeded my expectations. He's not flashy but he's been consistent.

this coaching staff would not know how to use a player like that. I thought rico was going to be that type of tightend but he cannot even get on the field. unless a tightend can play all three downs then that guy is useless to this coaching staff.

To you your first, you are probably right. But there is still a very good chance we have a new staff

To your second. Rico sucks

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

Swaim is a borderline starter. As a number 2 guy he would be pretty good. He is dependable and a pretty solid all around guy. Can block a little, can catch a little. It is a position that we have to improve for this offense to get better down the road.

Relative:

1. something dependent upon external conditions for its specific nature, size, etc. (opposed to absolute).

He’s a nice player
But I still think Dak needs another option there
A athletic guy who can do those seam routes
But swain is a solid player

When he got hurt in 2016 is when our offense started to sputter. I think he got hurt in the Pittsburgh game and that was the high point offensively that season in terms of things clicking.

I know what the term relative means.

The OP simply stated that Swaim was outstanding today. Nothing else. So relative to what, is 40 yards outstanding? Relative to a back up TE? Relative to the worse tight ends in the league? Because 40 yards isn’t an outstanding game relative to even average TE’s in the NFL.

It was a mediocre game at best by NFL standards.

I don’t hate Swaim either. I like him. But he should be a back-up in this offense. That’s what he is. A back up quality guy. Nothing wrong with that.

 

[stiletto]

Swaim has been totally solid. It is hard to replace a guy like Witten and 99% of TEs couldn't. The dropoff in our O isnt related to just that... It has more to do with our OC not being able to do anything to compensate. Linnehan sucks..

Swaim has been pretty solid for most of the season.

lol, what makes you think this team wants a pass catching TE?

He's our only TE who is even backup quality. I'll take him.
