Swanson said the feeling in training camp this year is very different from the feeling he had as a rookie.
Also helpful is having veteran Manny Ramirez in camp. Ramirez,Calvin Ridley Jersey, originally drafted by the Lions in 2007, returned to Detroit in a trade with the Denver Broncos.
"I know it's something you've got to work at day in and day out,Cheap NFL Jerseys China," Swanson said. "To me, I try to have a clean slate every day I walk in. What happened the day before doesn't really matter and you've got to prepare."
Swanson played in all 16 games last year, starting five of them. He also started at right guard in the NFL wild card game in Dallas.
"You're kind of more on your feet a little bit," Swanson said. "I kind of use the reference that's it's kind of like high school, coming to college. When you first get to college you're not sure what to expect, your head's kind of spinning a little bit. It's kind of the same way last year — not sure where you are, whole new system, learning as you go. So this year it's a lot slower, I guess I could say."
"Manny brings a lot of things to the table," Swanson said. "Being a veteran, he's been around, seen a lot of things, had a lot of experiences that you have to be in this league a while to have. It's good to kind of bounce ideas off of him."

Raiola replaced Eric Beverly as the team's center in 2002 and became a mainstay as the linemen surrounding him came and went. The Lions did not re-sign Raiola after the season, so now it's the 24-year-old Swanson's turn.
"Echoing maybe the calls by the quarterback but then also making adjustments quickly as well. He kind of handles that whole operation."

ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) — With Dominic Raiola gone,Wholesale Jerseys, Travis Swanson is set to become the man in the middle for the Detroit Lions.
"He certainly has the intelligence to do it,NFL Jerseys Store," Caldwell said. "He played quite a bit for us last year so he's had some experience both at guard and center, so that's helpful."

Swanson said the year he spent learning from Raiola helped him immensely.
"Dom helped me in so many ways that it's hard for me to say everything that he did for me," Swanson said. "But to be able to come in to a situation like I did, to have a guy like him that had been in this profession for so long,China Jerseys Cheap, it was something that was just invaluable."
"We anticipate he's going to be a very, very vital part of what we're doing up front," Lions coach Jim Caldwell said. "Right now he's at the apex of our offense and that's a very, very important position because he sets everything for us.
