Someone should probably draft D’Andre Swift’s ripped dad

Forget D’Andre Swift.

Nobody cared that the Georgia product and most-hyped running back in the class was off the NFL Draft board with the 35th pick. The Detroit Lions selected him with the third pick in the second round.

But that wasn’t the big story. The big story was that his dad is absolutely jacked, yoked and ripped.

ESPN’s commentary team was so enamored with Darren Swift that the coverage went into full Darren Swift mode and we’re not sure a person who hadn’t heard of D’Andre Swift would know a thing about Detroit’s new back.

Maybe the Lions should have just drafted Darren Swift.

In fact, somebody could probably use that massive weight-moving human to play somewhere on a football field.

The only way this pick makes sense is if the Lions also get D’Andre Swift’s dad to play ILB.
