[edit] College career

Swain played four seasons at San Diego State, where he never had fewer than 13 catches in a season. As a senior in 2007, he led his team by recording 58 receptions for 973 yards and 5 touchdowns. In 2006 he started a season for the first time and recorded 47 catches for 528 yards and scored twice. He also had 7 carries for 35 yards, though did not record a touchdown. He was known at school for his big-play ability and was an All-Mountain West Conference wide receiver his senior year.

[edit] Professional career

Drafted by the Packers, Swain will look to make the Packers roster based on his quickness and hands, and has the ability similar to that of Wes Welker. He could become a talented slot receiver in the NFL within a few years, but will have to make a team first.
