WR

Texas A & M

DraftNasty.com Description

Swope, pictured, got the most out of the slot position in the Big 12, twice setting Aggies' school-records for receptions in back-to-back seasons. He moved on to the SEC with similar success. A former high school 100-meter sprinter, he surprised many with his 4.34 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine.
