This year saw the decline of the pig.He spent a fair bit of time down forward and was carrying an injury most of the season.His average tumbled down by 31 PPG from 2013.Fanplanner has him priced at $467,100 which is well under priced for him if he can get back to the form he has had for many years.High risk pick but could give you high rewards.
Looks like he is getting Mid/Fwd DPP for next season,this makes him more of a lock down in the forward line than it does in the midfield.

I'm old school to me he will always be a gun.picked him up last year and basically single handedly ended my 50k Chase.


Super super tempted to pick him up. If he can go 110 , jumping on him will catapult onyiu up the rankings



He certainly has the pedigree, with beams gone u think he us needed in the mids if fit.


His High DT low SC games are my only concern

If he gets back in the midfield he could be good value  ;)

Vinny

If DPP definitely locked, but if not will still strongly consider. Priced at an 86 average and was injured all season. Can go 105+

SydneyRox

cant see him getting DPP would be a no brainer pick, vs are bugger like that!

Still need to hear he is over the foot injury.

Jroo

Don't think he'll get DPP, but I'll still consider him as a MID only.

Ricochet

Won't get DPP, but will still look at him. More so in AF though

He's not worth picking if he goes 100-105. That won't put him in the top bracket of mids, and you could easily get more than a 15-20 ppg improvement/price rise from a rookie instead and spend the money elsewhere, on premium keepers. The only way I'd pick him is if I was sure that he'll average 110 or more. His body is falling apart so that doesn't look good for his chances of playing 22 either.

Be careful righting off gun players he has had one bad year with injuries , he's 30 years old if gets over his problems and with Beams and Ball gone he could slot straight back in the mids next year and could be the bargain of the year , his previous scoring years are about as good as it gets

I thought after the amount of time he spent forward this year he would be a very good chance of dpp?
Will be in my side if he gets it

Would be even better if he gets dpp in SC and other fantasy games but I'm talking about him going back into the mids as he was in real life that's where he can score fantastic scores , time will tell

Yeah I know. I would expect him to go to the mid again now that he's over his injuries and with the loss of Beams.
Don't think he would be worth picking if he's going to be stay forward all year, even if he did get dpp.
Will no doubt hear more about what the plans are for him over pre season.

Ricochet

When the 2nd positional changes were released in AF this year Swan had only played fwd 30%. This won't be enough
